Westside School or simply Westside is a comprehensive school in the British territory of Gibraltar.

The school opened in 1982, and was built in order to provide education to the students of the former Girls' Comprehensive School, previously spread over three different sites, and itself an amalgamation of four girls' schools: Loreto High School, St. Joseph's Secondary School, St. Margaret's School, and St. David's Commercial School.[1]

It was formerly only for girls, but as of 2021 is coeducational.[2]
