Transport

How to get to us

As a local school, over 90% of our families live within a 4 miles radius of the school. We urge Channing families to walk to School or use public transport where possible to reduce congestion around beautiful Highgate and encourage healthy habits. Public parking is limited around School and the School is very well served by public transport.

We recommend the Citymapper app or the journey planner at tfl.gov.uk to help plan your trip to and from School – here are some popular Channing routes:

Train

London Underground: Archway and Highgate Station (Northern Line)
Overground: Highbury & Islington + 263 bus, Upper Holloway + 263 or walk (15 mins), Gospel Oak + C11 bus
