Davison Church of England High School for Girls, Worthing

It felt like a family. All the girls were lovely and the teachers were excellent. Learning resources were always good and the school really helped me to excel. There are always lots of activities going on and lessons are always enjoyable.

I don’t go here but my girlfriend does and she’s pretty great

a good school, but the support for mental health isn’t good. they don’t understand or care, and do nothing to stop bullying. they insisted i had nothing wrong with me and said i was “just naughty” when i’ve now been diagnosed with ADHD, dyslexia, depression, anxiety, ocd and bpd. these diagnosis’s wouldn’t of been so bad if i had the support i needed. also very homophonic. the actual school is nice and some teachers care, although a lot of nice ones have left. the education is good but the lack of support for struggling students is rubbish

Would reccomend 100 times over to any prospective student. I had the best experience I possibly could have.

I used to go to this school in the 1990's. What was disappointing was that no teacher or anyone at the school advised me to retake my GCSE's. I had glandular fever during school and was given no extra school time to catch up. I was fatigued after for years. Really sad, the careers advisor advised me the best I could be is a secretary. No one mentioned to work hard or mentioned about students going to university. I went on to gain a 2.1 BA degree and then Merit for an MRes masters degree but many years later and after meeting people that went to university. I was diagnosed with dyslexia at university. Completely disappointing school experience at Davison's, utter rubbish.

most of the girls there drink and smoke (in school and out), teachers are horrible and they do nothing about your mental health

it's a bit meh, tbh. they say they really care about youre mental health, but they do very little for most people. I cant really say as they're helping me in my situation, but it's not the best. the lgbtq+ representation is quite bad, you need parental permission to change your name on the register and teachers are not always supportive. could be a lot better and the uniform could be a heck of a lot cheaper.

I personally dislike the school, always talking about how well being and mental health matters but when you need someone to be there for you they simply can’t do that. They are very good with equality and race but seem to care more about gsce rates and the appearance of the school then how their students feel which is a big downer, giving out behaviour points for small things and making you feel bad about yourself was the biggest thing i went through and i never wanted to return. Each day it was a chore although some students will feel differently.

teachers vary from amazing and friendly to biased and uncaring. there’s decent academic support for students afaik but progress academically is slower and teacher bias comes in quite a lot when grading. cares more about its image and gcse grades than actual student wellbeing and equality, but it’s good enough i guess. p good environment and i’m glad i chose to go here despite its flaws.

the teachers don’t care about your well being, they give out behaviour points for the littlest things, all round just not a good school
