About Christ's College Finchley
Christ’s College Finchley is a non-selective, coeducational secondary school for students aged 11-18. It is a mainstream state academy situated in East Finchley, North London. There are nearly 1,000 pupils on its roll.
The school dates back to 1857. It was founded by the Very Reverend TR White, who opened it as a private boarding school called Chapel Hall School. In 1991, the school became a comprehensive when it moved to its current site on East End Road.

Values and vision
Christ’s College Finchley aims to make pupils feel good about themselves. As a result, the children are happy and there has been good retention of school staff over the decades. Pupils are expected to behave well, so bullying and aggression are rare.
Since 1906, the secondary school’s motto has been “Usque Proficiens”, meaning “advance all the way”. The school is proud that visitors consistently comment on the friendly and happy atmosphere, and that prospective teachers often remark that they feel "at home" within minutes of their arrival.
