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.

U13 Football March on to the Middlesex County Cup Semi-Final 🏆
Battling through wet and muddy conditions, the U13 football team secured a hard-fought 1–0 win over Rivers Academy to book their place in the County Cup Semi-Final.
Channing dominated possession throughout, but outstanding goalkeeping from the opposition kept the contest tight. The breakthrough finally came in the second half when Phoebe J fired home a superbly struck shot to seal the victory.
A determined performance and a deserved result — well done, team!
In their Art lessons, Year 1 have been exploring shape, line and colour while creating characters inspired by the Traction Man book series. They have brought simple household items to life with imagination and creativity!
Over the last three weeks, Year 2 has been exploring 2D and 3D shapes . The girls have loved creating 2D shapes and learning about symmetry and patterns. A real highlight was the challenge of building 3D shapes using sticks and Blu Tack, showing fantastic perseverance and resilience throughout!
Year 5 enjoyed learning about where our food comes from, and how many food miles the range of products have travelled.
Congratulations to our Fearless Linguists of the last half-term!
Talented linguists from Year 8 and above enjoyed being celebrated in a rewards breakfast this week. As well as listening to French, German and Spanish music and sampling our catering staff’s fine fare, students discussed what they find interesting about learning languages and the opportunities they offer.
