Emmanuel School

Emmanuel Church of England Primary School

Emmanuel Church enjoys a warm and collaborative relationship with our Church of England Primary School in the service of the whole wider community of West Hampstead.  Church of England Schools are not “faith schools” in the way that such phrases are commonly used in the media and elsewhere, but rather schools which exist for the whole wider community in all its diversity.

Each week the whole school comes over to the Church for a celebration of the Eucharist and are often joined by parents and carers, friends and members of the community. As a Christian school, our inclusive Christian values permeate our curriculum and acts of collective worship and parents and carers are ask to accept this when they choose Emmanuel School for their child.  This essential inclusivity ensures that we are not doctrinaire or inappropriately proselytising and it is the right of every parent or carer to withdraw their child from acts of worship if they so wish. We rejoice that we live in a diverse and multi-cultural society and it is the policy of the school to teach children about other beliefs and traditions to enable them to be sensitive and tolerant towards those whose religion and culture is different from their own.
