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!

The Careers Department was delighted to host Ms Shradha Budhiraja, a reception parent and engineering director at Monzo Bank and hear about her career in tech. Ms Budhiraja described her education and undergraduate degree in India, and the reasons she chose to study for her Masters degree in Computer Science at Stanford in the USA. She then outlined her working career with Adobe and Meta, initially developing software products and moving up to managing teams of engineers. Now at Monzo, she enjoys mentoring her team of software engineers who are responsible for an aspect of the bank’s business operations. Ms Budhiraja reflected on how, as her career progressed, it became more important that her employer’s values aligned with her own and advised students to consider what their own values are as they make moves towards the workplace. We are very grateful to Ms Budhiraja for her time last week!
