A Day in the Life of Channing Junior School

At Channing Junior School, we offer an enriching and exciting syllabus beyond the confines of a rigid curriculum. Creativity and innovation are developed from the Early Years and across Key Stages 1 and 2.

A Day in the Life of Channing Senior School

The Senior School is a place of great opportunities, Years 7, 8 and 9 are the years to learn, make mistakes, try new things and discover where your true talents lie.

Character Education

We felt that our Junior School pupils would benefit from being able to refer visibly to a set of defined character traits with accompanying tangible characters, which we could weave through every aspect of their educational experience. Pupils and staff were invited to share their ideas about what makes a Channing girl and what we want a Channing girl to be like. Thus, the Channing Characters were born!

What a fantastic time the Year 3 students had on their overnight camp. From archery to firelighting, team games to survival adventures we joined in everything with enthusiasm. To finish the evening we danced the night away with a silent disco and tasty s’mores by the campfire.  After an amazing breakfast, we bravely sampled adventurous snacks including crickets it was so much fun!
