Outstanding Education for Boys

At Brighton Grammar School we celebrate boys - their effort, their independence, their passion and their achievements.

With a history of more than 125 years devoted to teaching boys, we are well equipped to meet their developmental needs at every stage of their education.

What We Offer

Brighton Grammar School, is a mid-sized, single campus, Anglican school for boys that prides itself on knowing each boy as an individual.

Our school has an Early Learning Centre, a Junior School, Middle School and Senior School, on one expansive campus, which is serviced by outstanding facilities.

We offer boys a broad, well-balanced education with emphasis not only on the academic, but on a well-rounded education, which includes the spiritual, social, aesthetic and physical development of each boy.

We offer a teaching staff made up of people who love teaching boys. Every teacher has made a career choice to teach boys.

We offer parents, the primary educators, opportunity to be involved in a dynamic, educational partnership for the benefit of their boys.

We offer prospective parents an open entry policy for their boys. Any boy can be enrolled at Brighton Grammar School so long as we can meet his needs. We have a diverse student body representing a wide range of cultures and backgrounds.

We offer a strong academic curriculum as well as a broad range of co-curricular programs. The School has a proud history of outstanding results while emphasising the importance of the broadest possible education.

Broad Curriculum

Our curriculum is designed to challenge and extend our boys within a supportive framework.

In the early years we have a major focus on literacy, numeracy and thinking. This focus is extended in the early secondary school where students study two languages, core subjects such as Science, Mathematics, English, History and Geography as well as being exposed to more active learning in the fields of IT, Drama, Music, Art, Woodcraft and PE.

Our senior secondary curriculum is focussed on the VCE and we have a proud record of excellent results at the end of Year 12. All students are encouraged to maintain a balance of subjects, thinking more about developing a set of thinking and learning skills than the acquisition of particular factual knowledge.

Non Academic Program

Brighton Grammar School provides a challenging range of sports and activities throughout the School. This includes Sports and Physical Education, Outdoor Education, Community Service and Excursions.

There are a large number of cultural activities in which boys can become involved, including a thriving Chess club and a strong Debating and Public Speaking tradition.

Other areas include involvement in the Senior School Production, mooting competitions, and a very strong Music program with numerous concerts.
