The Weald School is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form. It caters for around 1,700 pupils in years 7 to 13, including over 300 in its sixth form. The school opened in 1956, and celebrated its 60th anniversary in the academic year 2016–17.

The school is located in the village of Billingshurst, West Sussex, England. Its grounds adjoin the main road through the village, and is shared with the local leisure facilities at Weald Recreation Centre. On 20 September 2008, the Weald Recreation Centre became the Billingshurst Leisure Centre. The centre is run by Places Leisure (a Places for People subsidiary) on behalf of Horsham District Council.

The Weald admits students from a catchment area, reaching north to the Surrey/Sussex Border, south to Bury, west to Midhurst, and into parts of Horsham.
