The Brighton Greek School of the Holy Trinity is an independent, non-profit making organisation registered as a charity trust (registration number 1168710). Our main purpose is to promote and teach the Modern Greek language, culture and traditions to children and adults of all national backgrounds who live in Brighton and the surrounding area.

We are a Greek Orthodox Christian school in which the Christian faith contributes significantly to the spiritual, moral and cultural life of the school. Lessons have been established since 1964 to date and we are proud that the school has been able to grow in numbers and to accommodate pupils from all ages and abilities.

​The school aims to encourage a love of Greece and Cyprus, an understanding of their history and recognition and pride in their legacy. In particular, the Brighton Greek School strives to show younger generations the influence that this rich cultural source has exerted and continues to exert on both individuals and society as a whole.

​The Brighton Greek School of the Holy Trinity works under the auspices of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Thyateira and Great Britain and the Cyprus Educational Mission in the UK. We follow the Cyprus Educational Mission Curriculum for the Greek Supplementary Schools in the UK.
