  • About Us

Welcome to Vale School

Vale School is one of the county's leading primary schools, offering a rich and exciting curriculum for children living in the Worthing area.  The school opened in the 1950s and has continually sought to provide the best opportunities for our pupils to become successful learners, confident individuals and responsible citizens.

If you are considering Vale School for your child, then we hope you find the contents of our website helpful. A good place to start would be to watch our videos. However, you will only get a full picture of our school by visiting us and seeing us in action. Please contact the school office and make an appointment to have a look around, meet some of the children, and find out for yourself what makes Vale such a great school.

As headteacher, I believe passionately in the importance of the individual. Every child at Vale School is valued and is encouraged to develop their talents to the full in a community where every achievement, however small, is celebrated.

Our aims and values support us in our ambition to see every child leave Vale School with a love of learning and with the skills, knowledge and character needed to succeed. If this ethos appeals to you and your child, then Vale School would be the right school for you. I do hope I have the pleasure of meeting you soon.
