APPLY NOWGirls Enjoying Success
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.

Chatting with Channing
On Thursday the 12th of February, we went on a trip to Merton College in Oxford for a Choral Scholar workshop day. We really enjoyed talks from the choir directors, some students in the choir and got to listen to a recital by the chapel choir. In the evening, we were lucky enough to sing an Evensong with the choir in their chapel and it was a lovely experience singing music by Howells and Ireland. We really enjoyed our day at Merton College!

From sports law and elite performance to university pathways, each speaker shared inspiring insights. Thank you to all for supporting and motivating our students!
This week, Gardening Club have been using loppers to recycle Christmas trees and turn them into timber to be used in the garden.
Teresa and Sereny answer questions about our Sixth Form:
`What are the new subjects at A Level, did you take one and do you like it?`
