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

The school opened in 1982, and was built in order to make available a better education to the students of the former Girls' Comprehensive School which had been then spread over three different sites. It was originally an amalgamation of four girls' schools: "Loreto High School", "St. Joseph's Secondary School", "St. Margaret's School", and "St. David's Commercial School".cite web|url=http://www.gibnet.gi/~bayside/oldsite/start.htm|title=General infomation|publisher=Bayside Comprehensive School|accessdate=2007-08-24]
