Sport at Emanuel 

Emanuel prides itself on providing high-quality sporting opportunities for girls and boys. As a school, we will run more teams and more fixtures than many other London day school, with most of these fixtures in our Performance Sports taking place at the weekend. We see significant value in facilitating our pupils taking part in team sports, competing alongside their peers, for enjoyment, friendship, well-being, and character development. 

Working at Emanuel

Colleagues enjoy working at Emanuel and, like the pupils, are ambitious for the school, delivering a challenging curriculum and an exciting co-curricular programme.

There’s a strong sense of community and friendship amongst our staff. An open dialogue about the school’s aims and direction of travel is maintained with a weekly pre-school briefing, half-termly staff meetings, termly consultative group meetings and a dynamic common room committee. 

Emanuel works hard to look after its employees, who all benefit from good pension provision and free lunches. Our appraisal scheme focuses on professional development and we sponsor postgraduate courses and a range of training opportunities. Staff wellbeing is extremely important to us: a healthcare plan via Simply Health that includes counselling and medical support is offered to all staff; staff yoga, football and mindfulness meditation are amongst the weekly activities colleagues can participate in.
