Christ College is an independent co-educational boarding and day school hosting nearly 400 pupils aged 4-18. Founded in 1541 by King Henry VIII, the school motto, “They achieve because they believe they can,” remains as relevant today as ever.

Each senior boarding house is run by a Houseparent; the Middle Hub by a Hub Leader who oversees every aspect of a pupil’s wellbeing and academic progress.
The prep school is located in the heart of Christ College’s campus and offers a purpose-built self-contained space. Pupils aged 4-11 are taught primarily in their own classrooms in St Nicholas House, while pupils aged 11-13 have lessons throughout the school and have their own boarding facilities in Alway house for those who full, weekly or flexi board. Friday night club is popular with pupils in Year 7 and 8 who enjoy movie nights, baking and cartoon illustrating.
