When Lord Jokobovits created the school, his aim was to give children the best chance in life, offering them the best form of education in both Jewish and secular studies. He wanted students to be part of society by following the values of their faith.
Immanuel College values modesty and respect, believing that every child is equal within the school. It follows the Torah, aiming to develop children who “act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with HaShem”. Teachers emphasise self-confidence, self-esteem and celebrate each individual pupil.
