Could Brillantmont be the right choice for you?
Brillantmont’s academic programme is internationally recognised and addresses the individual needs of each of our students.
We never forget that every student is different, with different learning styles and different talents. Our teachers work together with every student, to set attainable academic goals and help them make informed choices which shape their immediate future.
This close contact enables students to take ownership of their learning and think creatively and flexibly.
Our school offers exciting opportunities for both day and boarding students as they prepare for university through the International IGCSE / A-Level programme or the American Diploma.
Whichever course of study is right for the student, we make sure it opens doors for the future.
You can be sure that you are attending a school which meets the highest standards and which is always working to improve, to offer the very best for each and every student.
Living on campus among both their peers and caring, supportive staff means our students are fully immersed in an environment conducive with educational excellence, so vital at this stage of their school careers.
Learning to live together in a multi-cultural community helps students grow and develop as individuals, respectful and caring towards others.
