It has around 800 pupils, according to the Department for Education's Get Information About Schools register, and is a free school with a Christian ethos.

The school was formerly Grindon Hall Christian School and was renamed Christ's College in 2019 when it joined the Emmanuel Schools Foundation, the multi-academy trust that runs it today. Admissions information for both the primary and secondary phases is on the school's website.
