Thank you for your interest in Emmanuel College. We have a reputation for academic excellence, yet we place a far higher premium upon character development.

The results our students achieve place Emmanuel firmly amongst a small handful of the best comprehensive schools in the nation, yet our student intake is carefully tailored to be representative of inner city Gateshead and Newcastle (two-thirds of our students come from “disadvantaged and highly disadvantaged” areas, and the average IQ is 100 with as many low-attaining as high-attaining students).

Our staff are dedicated professionals, yet most would describe what they do in terms of vocation rather than career.

We have a distinctive Christian ethos, yet we apply no faith test on intake.  Parents choose Emmanuel for its orderly, calm, safe environment and emphasis upon respect for authority.

Please take a while to browse our site. If you choose to apply for a vacancy and are short-listed we will be delighted to invite you in for an interview to spend time with us at Emmanuel and get to know us better, in which case we look forward to meeting you!
