Worth School, in the village of Turners Hill, Crawley, West Sussex, England is a boarding and day school for boys aged between 11-18 years. The school is located alongside Worth Abbey, a Benedictine monastery with which it has a close relationship. As of 2005 the school has some 305 boarders and 150 day students.

Worth aims to provide a broad education and a balanced lifestyle that is rooted in the Benedictine tradition, and the headmaster has stated that "the pursuit of qualifications as the principal purpose of education is in danger of swamping all other objectives".
