Schools in Worthing

Worthing's Art Deco seafront, anchored by the Victorian and Edwardian pier at the foot of the South Downs, defines this West Sussex coastal town. The town transformed from a fishing hamlet into a fashionable Georgian seaside resort in the late 18th century, and became one of Britain's chief market gardening centres by the 19th. Around 109,000 residents live across the borough, with West Worthing and Findon Valley extending inland alongside heritage sites including the Iron Age fort of Cissbury Ring.

Broadwater is among the most sought-after neighbourhoods for primary school catchments, with Goring-By-Sea forming part of the school-competitive coastline. Worthing Station connects to Brighton in under 20 minutes.
