Education with a Difference

Bede’s is the place where every pupil finds joy in their pursuit of brilliance. An independent, co-educational school in Sussex, Bede’s Prep School is set on the stunning coastline in Eastbourne and the Senior School positioned in the heart of the idyllic Sussex countryside in the pretty village of Upper Dicker. At Bede’s, every pupil from the age of three months to eighteen years is provided with opportunities to learn both inside and outside the classroom to unlock their individual talents and foster their passions. 

Bede’s offers an all-encompassing education that nurtures pupils’ inquisitive minds, and in combination with the opportunities that our campuses provide, creates unforgettable memories and a lifelong love of learning.

Bede’s Prep School, set on the foot of the South Downs, boasts spectacular views of the sea at the foot of the South Downs National Park. Our Prep School and Nursery pupils regularly take advantage of its close proximity, and take their learning outdoors and connect with nature. Our beach school provides the perfect setting for pupils to gain practical experiences to apply to their learning.
