Term datesBrighton College
These are Brighton College's own term dates for 2026/27 and 2027/28 — read from brightoncollege.org.uk. The school hasn't published 2025/26 yet, so those years are filled from Brighton and Hove council's calendar: term dates and holidays, but not the school's own training days, usually five a year. Expect a few extra closed days. We re-check every few days and swap in the school's dates the moment they appear.
