About schools in East Sussex
Most of the three schools listed in East Sussex are independent schools. One school here provides for children with additional needs.
Every school on this page is inspected by Ofsted. Its newer reports judge a school across several areas rather than giving one overall grade, while older reports still carry the previous single grade, so read the framework and the date on each page before you set two schools side by side. An inspection or a results table captures a school at one past moment, so use this page to draw up a shortlist and then visit.
