Founded in 1882 and run by the fifth generation of the founding family we offer a warm, home from home environment to around 80 students, boarding and day, aged 13-18, from 30 different nationalities. Enter a tailor-made learning world, where you can be yourself.


“When people ask us what makes Brillantmont so special, it’s easy to answer. Quite simply - our students are always at the centre of everything we do.

We’re a small school, with a close-knit community, a family. We respect each other’s differences, we celebrate our different mindsets and together, we support each other as we learn and grow. Our family spirit has never been more evident than in these past few months, when we have pulled together to support each other through challenging times.
Everyone is different; people have different interests, different talents, different goals. As a school, we work together to fulfil the potential of each and every student, shaping them to become engaged, curious and confident in all they undertake, never forgetting that everyone is unique. Our location helps us by providing exceptional opportunities that you cannot find elsewhere. Our students are unique, we are unique; there is only one Brillantmont in the world. We hope to welcome you here soon.”
