SCHOOLS
Haywards Heath prides itself on having excellent local schools at all levels. Three state primary schools Harlands, Heyworth and Northlands Wood and two State Aided primary schools, Catholic St Joseph’s and Church of England St. Wilfrid’s. Two comprehensive colleges serve the town, Oathall Community College and Warden Park. St Paul’s Catholic College with its own Sixth Form, which was in the town for many years, has moved to Burgess Hill to a much bigger site to meet the needs of today. This school when it was built was considered to be the most up to date school in the County, if not the country. The town now has only one Sixth Form establishment, the former Haywards Heath College now known, together with Crawley College as Central Sussex College, which is in Harlands Road. The College serves a large catchment area and is easily accessible by road and rail. Both colleges have undergone extensive redevelopment and are now centres for excellence for education and training and have between them a vast range of courses on offer for young and mature students.

ADULT EDUCATION
Adult Education classes continue to grow to keep pace with demand and many classes are on offer for every age group. All the secondary schools and the Central Mid Sussex College offer classes and many of these are based at different venues around the town, including the Town Hall.
