Community Service at Worth

All students are encouraged to participate in Community Service during their time at Worth.

The activity programme has been developed with the aim that all students in Years 9 - 11 will undertake at least one service activity in the course of the year. For some sixth formers service is part of the International Baccalaureate. Others undertake it to fulfil their Duke of Edinburgh Award commitments.

Below is a synopsis of the varied programme of service activities:

  • Age Concern Shopping - taking the elderly to and around the supermarket, helping them with their shopping

  • Charity Shop Assistant - serving and helping in charity shops

  • Conservation - caring for and improving the environment, both within the school grounds and in the local community

  • Day Centre - assisting and socialising with the elderly over lunch

  • Flying Squad - helping the elderly tend their gardens

  • Primary School Support - helping with I.T. and sports skills

  • Recycling

  • Soup Run - one evening a week a group of sixth formers take sandwiches, soup and coffee to the homeless and less fortunate in Brighton

  • Worth Projects - expanding facilities within the school grounds
