Hamilton Lodge School is a Non-Maintained Special School for deaf children with residential facilities, and is situated in Brighton within 10 minutes walk to the sea and 20 minutes to the town centre. We cater for pupils aged between 5 and 18 years old and have a Child Centered Approach to communication using English and BSL. 

The school has been commended for its quality of care and offers pupils the opportunity to reach their potential through at all times maintaining a positive approach, removing barriers to communication, providing good role models and celebrating achievement. Pupils are taught in small groups and the majority of full-time teaching staff are trained as qualified Teachers of the Deaf.

Hamilton Lodge School teaches each one of its pupils to:
  • successfully acquire language and communication skills
  • develop emotionally and socially
  • be healthy and fit and enjoy their leisure time
  • become confident and independent young people ready to be able to continue learning and enter employment
