Viewed from Surrenden Road looking over the snow covered rear of the school grounds. On a clear day the view from here can extend down to the Brighton Wheel on the seafront, though on this day the constant light snow reduced visibility quite drastically. The school was built in 1932 and was originally a grammar school for boys until girls began to be admitted in 1972. In 1975 the whole school system in Brighton was overhauled and the buildings became the current sixth form college.
