Hello, I just came across your message while searching for opinions on Worthing Secondary schools (though it's a long way off for us yet, DD is just finishing Y2 :))
We have lived in Worthing for 6 years now (having relocated from Brighton) and we love it here.
My children go to Durrington First School (our catchment school), which I know a lot of local people think is a bit crap but our children have had a great experience there so far, and are making good progress.
I don't know of any schools in Worthing with a really bad reputation, though some obviously have a better rep than others. For primary, Thomas A Beckett seems to have the best reputation but it is a huge school (6 form entry in Reception) so not for everyone.
Of the secondary schools, Davison and St Andrews (single sex) have a good reputation, as does Durrington High. Worthing High is currently in special measures so obviously a bit iffy at the moment but will presumably attract more funding over the next few years as a result.
A few years ago, I did some supply teaching at Angmering, which I thought was lovely. Chatsmore is also good- small and very friendly but Catholic so not for everyone.
I hope that helps a bit?! What sort of areas are you interested in living in?
