The headteacher said none of the students knew about the surprise and he was only told who would be coming the day before.

He said: “I joked with the children that I had bought my mate along, and Ed Sheeran was there. Their faces were amazing when we opened the door.

“He was absolutely brilliant, an amazing person and very humble.”

The visit was arranged by Create Music, a project run by the Brighton Dome and Brighton Festival which aims to provide inclusive music and arts education.

The four-time Grammy Award winner spoke with a number of pupils and then performed three of his top hits at an assembly.

The headteacher added: “This week is Sats week, so the Year 6 children will be doing exams.

“When you’re 20, 30, 40, or even older, I don’t think you’re going to remember the exams.

"You’re going to remember Ed Sheeran coming to your school.”
