Sports College

A Specialist Sports College since September 2002, Dorothy Stringer is on a path which will see it match its outstanding academic record and achievements with excellence in the field of PE and Sport.

For us, excellence in PE and Sport is child centered. We will ensure that all students are encouraged to develop according to their individual needs and aptitudes. Our aim is to help them understand the importance of fitness and healthy lifestyles. We are committed to the idea that physical well-being and intellectual development are inseparable.

Healthy body, healthy mind: we want to make this a reality at Stringer.

As a Sports College, Dorothy Stringer aims to raise and sustain student achievement in physical education and sport across the ability range. With its focus on teaching and learning and on the important of being itself a 'learning organisation', our school will strive to develop and promote excellence in PE and sport throughout the City of Brighton and Hove, nurturing inclusive links and partnerships with out family of school, sports bodies, local communities and businesses. By sharing its growing expertise and resources, particularly its modern indoor facilities built and maintained under Public Finance Initiative, Dorothy Stringer intends to reach out and, with its community partners, open up opportunities for all young people to participate widely in PE and sport, become responsible for their health and fitness and develop their sporting talents and aspirations to the full.
