At Lancing Prep Worthing, we have three core aims that run through everything that we do: to Love Learning, to Be Kind and to Go Out into the World and Do Good. These aims are the core, the beginning, and the end of everything that we do here. Parents choose Lancing Prep Worthing for these aims, but also because they recognise that its family feel, outstanding pastoral care, and small classes are good for children starting on their learning journey and whose childhood is protected and cherished.<\/p>\n
Our children flourish; they are able to achieve their potential in an enriching and very positive environment. Our broad and balanced curriculum is enriched with high quality creative and physical activities to provide a vibrant learning environment in which they thrive.<\/p>\n
The children have space to work in, bright classrooms full of natural light, grass to run on and they are provided with a wide range of educational experiences which broaden their knowledge and understanding of the world around them.<\/p>\n

Pupils\u2019 academic achievement is high<\/h2>\n
Our pupils\u2019 academic achievement is high; they consistently gain places at their first choice of senior school, often gaining scholarship and other awards.<\/p>\n
Attending Lancing Prep Worthing is an excellent pathway to joining Lancing College and many of our Year 8 leavers regularly do so. We do acknowledge that, for our parents, this is a choice and we engage actively with parents at an early stage to discuss the best options for each individual child in next step in their education.<\/p>\n

Excellent opportunities outside the classroom<\/h2>\n
We encourage all our pupils to experience a wide range of enrichment activities, including music, drama, sport and community service.<\/p>\n
We give our girls and boys every opportunity to pursue those interests, inside and outside the classroom, and celebrate with them their achievements and successes.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow\u2019s citizens today<\/h2>\n
Our aim is for pupils to leave us confident and fulfilled, having found areas where they excel and contribute to the wider school community – whether academically, in athletic or aesthetic spheres.<\/p>\n
This, together with an awareness of their environment and consideration for others, sends them on to continue their education in a senior school as caring and capable members of society.<\/p>\n

In May 2025, Lancing Prep Worthing was inspected under the Independent Schools Inspectorate’s (ISI) new framework, which came into effect from September 2023. Under framework 23, schools no longer receive a one-word judgement or grade; instead, pupil experience is scrutinised under four areas:<\/p>\n
\n- Leadership and management<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Quality of education<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Pupils’ physical, mental and emotional wellbeing<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Pupils’ social and economic education and contribution to society<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
The report reflects the excellence of Lancing Prep Worthing and the superb nature of our care and work with pupils, both within and beyond the classroom. We are recognised to meet all the standards and regulations governing the running of an independent prep school and to be compliant in all areas.<\/p>\n
