Warblington School is a coeducational community secondary school, located in the Warblington area of Havant in the English county of Hampshire.[1]

The school is situated opposite Warblington railway station, toward the east of Havant on the Hampshire and West Sussex border serving the surrounding area.[2] It is administered by Hampshire County Council which coordinates the schools admissions.[3]

Warblington School offers GCSEs as programmes of study for pupils.[4] It is the only school located in Warblington, as the area does not have any primary schools.

Warblington School has been recognised as a “Good” school by Ofsted.

The property was Grade II listed in June 2019 by Historic England because of architectural and historic interest.[5]

The school came under critism in 2019 after a PE teacher, Sean Aldridge, was sentenced to 12 years in prison for having sexual relations with 4 girls attending the school from the ages of 13 to 16 between 2007 and 2012.[6]
