we are so proud to have been awarded the Music Mark of Recognition for 2026-27! This mark recognises the ambition and quality of our music curriculum at Dorothy Stringer, and we are excited to work with Music Mark UK to continue advocating for the importance of musical education and creativity for all of our school community.

Every year we run our Enrichment Week in the Summer term. Students are offered to take part in a wide range of activities that give them an opportunity to learn outside of the classroom or in a different way. Take a look at the booklet below for an example of the wide range of activities on offer.

Enrichment Week 2027

Year 7 Forest School

We've officially kicked off Forest School for our new Year 7 students! Our first group has already enjoyed exploring the woodland, taking part in outdoor activities and beginning their Forest School journey. This fantastic programme provides students with opportunities to develop confidence, resilience and teamwork while learning in a natural environment.

Amaze Story Trail

Our reading bench was inspired by Brighton’s diverse culture, famous attractions and unique history. We wanted to capture what makes our city special, from the pebbled beach and rolling waves to the colourful buildings and lively atmosphere.

Education for Life begins with us

Dorothy Stringer is a vibrant, stimulating and happy community – a place where everyone is encouraged to play their part, both inside and outside the classroom. We aim to create a learning environment that meets the needs of every one of our students.

Today’s young people face a world that is changing at an ever-increasing pace. As a school we have a duty to prepare them for their adult lives. We firmly believe the five-year experience at Dorothy Stringer will help to unlock their full potential and instil a lifelong love of learning.
