Both our very different sons had extremely positive experiences with Varndean. The admissions team were able to spot potential with 1 son's lower than ideal entry grades. 3 years later he starts Uni next month where each year 1300 students apply for 105 places. Our other son completes his 4 year degree next summer which was made possible due to Varndean's staff & their dogged focus on his achievements. Their support & vision eased square pegs into round holes. Of course the boys did the work but with the right guidance doors opened.

OFTSTED inspectors have recently given Varndean College a glowing report, confirming it once again as a good college. Inspectors found a “significant amount” of teaching, learning and assessment to be “outstanding,” including all Visual Arts courses. Major strengths identified by the inspectors included: Enthusiastic and skilled teachers plan and deliver lessons in a thoughtful and imaginative way, enabling students to be successful. Students appreciate the strong support from staff which promotes learning and enables students to develop positive working relationships with each other. Students enjoy coming to College and going to lessons and this is reflected in the high attendance. The overall quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good and a significant amount is outstanding. This reflects the college’s ethos of maintaining a strong focus on learning for all students and staff. The inspection team also praised the very successful International Baccalaureate Diploma course: “In 2011/12, all students completing the course passed and the average diploma score per student was very high compared to national and international averages”.
A school where everyone matters - is the fatuous slogan that greeted my arrival. I discovered that this didn't apply to temporary staff. When attempting to stand up against deliberate rudeness and hostility from students, in defence of common civility, the school dismissed me without redress, a word or the slightest hint of being 'a school where everyone matters' - great hypocrisy. Perfect contempt
