Why is East Sussex such a desirable place to live?

East Sussex offers a modern, cosmopolitan atmosphere against a backdrop of renowned scenery, including the South Downs and the UK’s southern coastline.

The obvious choice for those looking for an urban environment in East Sussex is Brighton, also known as ‘London-on-Sea’. Although property in Brighton is almost as costly as in London itself, it makes for a great investment if you aren’t looking to rent.

East Sussex lies within commuting distance of London at all points and the county has a well-deserved reputation for educational excellence, spearheaded by the University of Sussex in Brighton.

How much does it cost to rent in Brighton?

  • The average rent of a one-bedroom apartment in Brighton is £1,126 pcm, compared to £1,832 pcm in London
  • The cost of living for a single person in Brighton is £786 pcm, compared to £889 pcm in London

How long does it take to get to London from Brighton?

The journey from Brighton to London Victoria by train takes a speedy 55 minutes from the coast to the city.

What are East Sussex schools like?

Of the 244 registered schools in the East Sussex area:

  • 23 schools were OFSTED-rated outstanding
  • 159 schools were rated good in their last OFSTED inspection
  • 68 are academies, 126 are maintained schools and 27 are special educational needs schools
  • 201 are primary schools, 74 are secondary schools and 40 are schools for those aged 16-18

Why choose teaching jobs in East Sussex?

  • Brighton is one of the UK’s great arts and culture hubs
  • Excellent commuting links and close proximity to London
  • Ample potential for good property investments both within the London commuter belt in northern Sussex and in and around Brighton
  • Home to award-winning beaches
  • Beautiful natural scenery
