The Christ Church School had its beginnings in the vestry of Christ Church in 1870, and was then known as Christ Church School. The school was founded on 1 November 1876 by Rev. Drawbridge. The school started with three students and now there are over 3,000 students at the school, and 101 members on the teaching and office staff. The actor,
Sharat Saxena, and
Mahant Swami Maharaj are alumni. The school has a separate branch for girls, named as Christ Church Girls' Senior Secondary School. These two schools are located on the opposite side of the same road. Earlier, the school delivered co-education, but later, it was split up into Boys' and Girls' school, both being affiliated to
Central Board of Secondary Education now. Earlier the school was affiliated to
MPBSE (MP Board) and
CISCE. ICSE now functions as a separate wing named ICSE wing (Christ Church School for Boys and Girls) which delivers co-education. == Sports and cultural activities ==
