Schools in Worthing, West Sussex

Schools In Worthing, West Sussex

Schools in Worthing are provided by West Sussex County Council and by a number of independent providers. Both non-denominational and Church of England maintained schools are organised along three tier lines, with students transferring from a first school at age 8 to a middle school, and then starting secondary school at age 12. This system was introduced in 1973 as part of a move to reorganise schools to provide comprehensive education across West Sussex.

The local authority provides 22 primary schools (through a combination of first, middle and combined schools) and five secondary schools, alongside a primary and a secondary special school.

    It is too late in the century for women who have received the benefits of co-education in schools and colleges, and who bear their full share in the world’s work, not to care who make the laws, who expound and who administer them.
    J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)

    In England and America a beard usually means that its owner would rather be considered venerable than virile; on the continent of Europe it often means that its owner makes a special claim to virility.
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
