Values and vision

At Immanuel College, it believes that we are ‘All God’s Children’. It also believes that the school, through its distinctive Christian character, is outstanding at meeting the needs of all learners. They feel that the impact of Collective Worship on the school community, the effectiveness of R.E. and the leadership and management of the school as a Church school is outstanding. A Christian ethos is at the heart of the school life; Immanuel means ‘God with us’ and the school believes that ‘God is with us here at Immanuel’.
