Varndean College
website: http://www.varndean.ac.uk/
The college was founded in 1884 in York Place, Brighton as a boys' Secondary School and moved to its current site in 1932, later attaining grammar school status, becoming Varndean Grammar School for Boys, administered by the Education Committee for the County Borough of Brighton. In 1972 the first girls were admitted to the school, and in 1975 it became a sixth form college http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varndean_College

Varndean College
The original building on the left opened as a boys girl in 1932 to complement the neighbouring girls school, now Varndean Secondary School, opened the previous year. This remained the state of affairs until 1972 when girls were admitted but lasted only for three years when a reorganisation of schools turned this into a sixth form college and the old girls school into a mixed comprehensive. Three other schools, Dorothy Stringer High School, Balfour Juniors and Balfour Infans, are also nearby, a legacy of the old municipal education committee purchasing the land from Varndean Farm in 1909. The college also has its own wind turbine next to the modern extension which is just visible through the blanket of snow that appeared overnight.

Varndean Sixth Form College
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.
