Bohunt Horsham is a coeducational, all-through school in Horsham, West Sussex.[1] The school opened to 120 students in Year 7 in 2019 in the centre of Horsham whilst a new, purpose-built school is currently in development North of the town. Eventually the school will take 1620 students from ages 4–16, and will include a nursery with provision for 50 places. Bohunt School Horsham is funded by the Department for Education as a Free School. The school is sponsored by the Bohunt Education Trust, led by Bohunt School in Liphook, Hampshire.[2]
Opening in 2019 & Temporary Site
The new school is the third newly opened school by the Bohunt Education Trust. It opened in a temporary site in Hurst Road, Horsham in September 2019, with 120 students joining in the first year.[3] The trust announced the Head Teacher in November 2018.[4]
Permanent Site
The school plans to relocate to a new, purpose built site, to the North of the town on Rusper Road in 2020.[5] This comes of a wider development of the area with the addition of up to 2,750 homes, a business park, and sports facilities.[3][6]
