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. If you have a passion to make a difference in the lives of the young people, and demand personal best from yourself as well as others, we would like to hear from you. **A little more detail** Emmanuel College is a large, vibrant comprehensive school in the heart of Tyneside serving 1400 students aged between 11 and 19. Emmanuel College exists to impart wisdom to the next generation by educating young men and women in a culture that prioritises the pursuit of truth and the development of character. We are a school with a distinctive Christian ethos, but our community is made up of students, staff and parents who hold many different religious and ideological positions and unite around our core beliefs and core values. One of the few remaining City Technology Colleges, Emmanuel College retains a strong commitment to providing opportunities for the most disadvantaged in our communities in a culture of high expectations and entrepreneurship. We value academic excellence and each year see many of our students leave to take up places at some of the world’s top universities, but we hold personal best to be of far greater importance. It is our experience that by developing a strong work ethic, holding a growth rather than fixed mind-set, and being provided with outstanding tuition, students may go on to achieve considerably more than they might have imagined possible. We seek to be intentional about character education, our aim being that our students will, in the future, become servant-hearted leaders. Students starting here encounter consistent rules, role models and traditions, which help them feel part of the Emmanuel family and to begin to take responsibility for others. As students grow older, we expect more of them and in the Sixth Form expect our students to take on at least one formal leadership role in College as well as beginning to serve in the wider community. All Emmanuel students and staff members can expect to be involved in at least one co-curricular activity. A professiona
