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.

Famous quotes containing the words schools and/or west:
“In schools all over the world, little boys learn that their country is the greatest in the world, and the highest honor that could befall them would be to defend it heroically someday. The fact that empathy has traditionally been conditioned out of boys facilitates their obedience to leaders who order them to kill strangers.”
—Myriam Miedzian, U.S. author. Boys Will Be Boys, ch. 3 (1991)
“Just how difficult it is to write biography can be reckoned by anybody who sits down and considers just how many people know the real truth about his or her love affairs.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
