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.

Last week we celebrated Creative Arts Week, exploring how the arts challenge stereotypes and familiar tropes. Pupils debated powerful literary heroines, took part in a Six! The Musical workshop, and learned from Booker Prize–shortlisted author Stephen Kelman. With Renaissance art talks, World Book Day activities, and an International Women’s Day assembly, it was a vibrant week of creativity, literature and performance.
