About Christ's School
Christ’s is an oversubscribed, Church of England comprehensive school and sixth form situated in the heart of Richmond, on an enviable site adjacent to Richmond Park, in South West London.
At Christ’s School we are committed to the pursuit of excellence in all that we do. This enables us to combine our expectations for our students’ outstanding academic achievement with an emphasis on their personal growth as well-rounded individuals. Our aim is for students to become confident, successful, responsible young people, who love learning, have a desire to lead and to serve, and are ambitious for their own futures.
Christ’s School offers a fantastic learning environment. All our departments benefit from large, well-equipped specialist classrooms and all of our school community benefits from our ICT suite, drama and dance spaces and science laboratories within our fantastic sixth form building.
Our students, and the wider community, also enjoy a very comprehensive range of sports facilities, including a full size sports hall, outdoor tennis, basketball and netball courts, a full size football and rugby pitch, a dance studio as well as an outdoor athletics track and working in conjunction with Richmond Cricket Club we have a cricket wicket, outfield and batting nets.
Whether it is by competing in the finals of the National Basketball Championships, visiting the Houses of Parliament, performing at the Carnegie Hall in New York or an action-packed language trip to France, we offer students a wide-range of learning opportunities. Academic, social, musciacl and sports clubs run every day before and after school catering for all age groups and interests.
As an inclusive Church of England school, we welcome students and staff of all faiths. Our learning environment is inspirational, supportive and happy, and based on the Christian values of Love, Justice and Peace. . ‘The headteacher provides strong, purposeful leadership founded on Christian values, and she is well supported by her staff. These values permeate every aspect of school life. Staff are proud to work at the school, and praise the school’s leadership.’’ Ofsted, 2021.
