Channing, an independent school based in North London, where girls aged 4 to 18 can discover their interests, develop their talents, and build lasting friendships. Our inspiring environment fosters academic achievement and personal growth.
The school actively prepares pupils for the future.
A visionary all-girls school full of extremely confident, capable and engaging young women.
‘Fearless’ teaching and learning, encouraging girls to step out of their comfort zone and be ‘10 per cent braver’, is reaping academic rewards. It is a useful life lesson too, but not at the expense of school being fun.
Excellent academics, fantastic pastoral care and a wonderful way of imbuing girls with self-confidence, Channing makes a strong argument for single-sex education.
Girls throw themselves into all aspects of school life, and teacher commitment goes way beyond the classroom.

We were delighted to host our Year 12 Certificates Celebration today!
Our fantastic Year 12 students received their GCSE certificates — a proud moment and the perfect opportunity to come together to celebrate their hard work, dedication, and outstanding results, as well as to enjoy some well-deserved cake and (non-alcoholic!) fizz.
Congratulations to you all — we are so proud of you!
The U13B team had a long trip to Surbiton to play the quarter final of the ESFA Cup for B teams. Despite a valiant effort the team lost 4-0 to a strong Surbiton High School. However a great achievement to reach the final eight of a national tournament.
Love was in the air during the Textile Creations lunchtime club. Girls created their very own felted love hearts for Valentine’s Day.
Year 12 and Year 2 had a great time today working together for Inclusion Week 🌻
They created these sunflowers while celebrating kindness, teamwork and our school community 💛
