Worth School, Turners Hill:
Worth School is a Benedictine (Catholic) independent co-educational day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 11-18. The school is situated in Turners Hill, West Sussex, in South East England, only 50 km from London and 12 km from Gatwick Airport. At Worth, we see our pupils as 'Lanterns to Light'. Inspiring pupils to think, learn, create, imagine and perform is crucial if each individual is to develop their intellectual potential. Pupils are not merely taught what they need to know but, much more importantly, how to learn.
These values guide our way of life here at Worth and provide direction and inspiration for the entire community.
* Fidelity in Relationships - God is faithful to us and we find our true selves in stable and committed relationships
* Balance & Moderation - The daily routine of the school takes into account our different strengths and weaknesses
* Community - We grow as individuals through a life of inter-dependence
* Listening & Consultation - We listen for God's voice in our own hearts and in our encounters with other people
* Stewardship - We honour the goodness of God's creation by our care for the environment
* Hospitality - We welcome the newcomer 'with the warmth of love'
* Worship - God is placed at the centre of our lives through communal worship
* Humility - We are honest about our strengths and weaknesses
* Service - In serving others we meet Christ and grow in love of each other
* Silence - Silence is required for prayer and reflection

Day pupils at Worth are also fully engaged in the life of the school including all activities on offer in the evening and at weekends. They register at 8:30 a.m. each morning and can leave at 5:55 p.m. There is a strong tradition of day pupils becoming boarders later in their school career.
There is a diverse and wide-ranging programme of events and activities for pupils outside the curriculum at Worth, in three main areas.
i) A comprehensive activities programme for all students in the school
ii) A voluntary Community Service programme open to all Year 9 to 13 pupils. These activities take place both on and off-site.
There is a comprehensive range of activities into which all pupils have to opt throughout the course of the year. All students take part in two activities a term, however in the Summer Term this is reduced to one for Years 13,12 and 11. If a student has a school commitment, such as choir, the Young Enterprise Scheme or Rugby Sevens, or is studying an extra subject outside the curriculum, then that can count as their activity. Many students will, however, choose an activity in addition to their commitment.
