From the school

In the school’s words

Channing invites all candidates to attend a face-to-face interview. These take place on Tuesday 5 January 2027. In December, parents will receive a personalised email with an interview time unique for their daughter. Channing has shut the school especially for 11+ Interviews, with all teachers interviewing candidates on that day. Unfortunately there is no scope to change the original appointment time. We advise all applicant families to record this date in their diary and keep the date free. All Channing applicants are interviewed regardless of the assessment result.

Will my daughter have an interview?

All Channing applicants are invited to attend an interview in January 2025. Candidates will meet our Head of Year 7 and take part in team building activities, followed by an individual interview with a senior member of staff for approximately 20 minutes. The team building activities are not scored and do not contribute to the outcome of the application.

Do you offer Scholarships and Bursaries?

All applicants who sit the 11+ entrance examination are automatically considered for an Academic Scholarship (10% of the fees). No separate application is required. If you wish to apply for a Music Scholarship you must complete the Music Scholarship Application form before the application deadline, in addition to the Year 7 application form.

Are applicants with a sibling already at Channing always offered a place?

We have a large number of applicants for every available place at Channing. If we have to choose between two or more candidates who are equally suited to life at Channing and equally likely to flourish then we will give preference to a girl who already has a sister in the school. Otherwise we do not have a sibling policy that automatically gives a sibling a place.

When will I know the result of my daughter's application?

Results will be emailed to parents in February 2025. Please note, if your daughter is placed on the Waiting List, information about her position on the Waiting List is not given. All girls on the Waiting List are considered to have qualified for entry should a place arise before the beginning of Year 7.
