Recently judged to be ‘Boarding School of the Year’ at the Independent Schools of the Year awards, Worth School is a distinctive day and boarding school for boys and girls, set in 500 acres of beautiful Sussex countryside close to London and Gatwick Airport. We are an academically ambitious school with excellent examination results and pastoral care, and a diverse range of more than 150 co-curricular activities. Worth is a Catholic school but welcomes pupils of all faiths and no faiths, and our Benedictine values include Community, Humility and Service. These values provide the foundation for a unique education – an education with heart and soul – preparing pupils to become well-rounded individuals who are kind, purpose-driven and community-minded.
Worth retains historic and traditional features whilst effortlessly blending in state-of-the art modern facilities including the magnificent Spencer Building featuring a library, auditorium and Sixth Form centre, and a new Science Building to be completed in 2025. Sports facilities are excellent and there is a superbly equipped Performing Arts Centre.
Sixth Form students select either the International Baccalaureate Diploma or A levels and go on to study at world-class institutions. Every Worthian remains part of the community long after they leave, enjoying the benefits of our award-winning alumni association which offers extensive career mentoring, networking and internships as well as sports, music and social events.
