The Faculty of Education and Sport is one of the largest within the university, catering for over 4,000 students and around 200 members of staff. The faculty is made up of three teaching schools and two associated departments. It is at the leading edge of many national developments in its specialist subjects.
Together with a strong commitment to continuous improvement and innovation, the faculty is a dynamic and creative place to study and work. For more information about the schools and departments in the faculty please follow the links below:

The faculty is recognised for the excellence of its teaching. The Times newspaper ranked it as one of the highest-rated teacher training providers in the country and it received high scores in the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) QAA subject reviews.
The faculty's international profile is developing rapidly. Not only do we provide courses for students from over 70 countries, we also offer a Masters course in Mauritius. The American Office, based in the faculty, runs programs with Arizona and Illinois State universities.
Faculty and school locations
The faculty office is situated at Falmer. The schools are situated on one site in Brighton (Falmer) and two in Eastbourne (Hillbrow and Darley Road). It has a range of support facilities, including purpose-built IT suites, a curriculum centre, gymnasium and sports laboratories. A major redevelopment has resulted in the completion of new lecture theatres, a drama studio, a state-of-the-art sports centre (with a floodlit artificial turf pitch), new libraries, refectories and halls of residences.
We hope that you find this site informative and useful, and you can be sure that you will receive the warmest of welcomes should you visit one of our open days.
