The Nottingham Emmanuel School is a coeducational Church of England secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located near the banks of the river Trent in West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire, England. It is next to the former Great Central Main Line in the borough of Rushcliffe. It is apart of the Archway Learning Trust, joining in 2018; being the 5th school to join and the 7th in the family.




History


The School began in September 2002 and has been using the old Wilford Meadows building until the arrival of its completed 'new build' in late 2008. The first 6th-form students began their A-Levels in September 2007.

In 2000 a project group was established to plan a programme of consultation, including a range of feasibility studies. There was very strong support from parents for the development of another Church school and this proposal was also supported nationally through the recommendations made in the Dearing Report for new Church Aided Schools to be established. In 2001 a temporary Governing body was convened to set up the School.
The Nottingham Emmanuel School was so named because it reflects faith in God. The Governors realised that a specifically Christian spiritual ethos in which other faith traditions were hosted within an Anglican framework was crucial to the overall purpose. This is reflected in the School's Admission Policy.
The School celebrated its official opening in 2002 with 180 students and is now full in Years 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11. In September 2006 the school welcomed their fifth year of intake and this meant students for the first time were entered for public examinations at Key Stage 4. The school has a planned full size of 1150 students, including the Sixth Form in 2008/9.
The school converted to academy status on 1 June 2013.




= Grammar school

=
The true origins of the school, in a convoluted and chequered history, start with the Mundella Grammar School, on Colygate Road in the Meadows, which opened in 1899. The school's name came from Anthony John Mundella, a Liberal MP for Sheffield, and Sheffield Brightside.




= World War II

In September 1939 153 boys were evacuated to Stamford School, and 117 girls to Stamford High School. The boys and girls travelled by train on 5 September 1939. Some were confirmed by the Bishop of Lincoln at St Mary's Church on Thursday 7 December 1939.
The group returned by train on Tuesday 12 March 1940, but Nottingham had not been bombed. The Nottingham Blitz was on 8 May 1941.




= Comprehensive

This became a comprehensive in the 1970s, keeping its former name. These school buildings were demolished in 1985. The school transferred to the Roland Green Comprehensive School, which became the Wilford Meadows School. Due to its low results, this school was closed, and has now re-opened as the Nottingham Emmanuel School.

Pastoral care


Pastoral care at Nottingham Emmanuel School is designed to support the development and well-being of its students. This system ensures that every student receives the necessary guidance, support, and encouragement to learn academically. The pastoral care framework involves a dedicated team of staff, including form tutors, heads of year, and pastoral managers, who work collaboratively to monitor and support students' progress, behaviour, and emotional well-being. Regular one-on-one meetings, group sessions, and a variety of support programs are implemented to address individual needs and foster a positive school environment whilst still catering towards each students needs.




= Form tutors

=
Each Tutor Group of mixed ability students is attached to a Year Group and a House. The Tutor Group of approximately 30 students has its own Form Tutor who is supported by two Assistant Tutors from Year 10. The Form Tutor is responsible for supporting the students in their care in all aspects of their school life – academic, social and personal. They will be closely monitoring their academic progress in the National Curriculum through teacher assessment data and their rewards and behaviour record through the online school’s information management system. Advice and guidance can be given over any matter which might affect the individual’s work and personal development. The Form Tutor is the first point of contact for parents and students over any matter relating to school life and normally stays with their tutor group from Year 7 – 11 to ensure continuity of pastoral care and support throughout their school career.

All of the Tutor Groups and Form Tutors are managed by the Achievement and Pastoral Manager. This person is responsible for co-ordinating the work of the Year group and monitoring overall academic progress. They co-ordinate intervention programmes and ensure that the whole year group work together effectively and maintain high standards of behaviour. The Achievement and Pastoral Manager is available to support parents and tutors in more serious matters of concern relating to any aspect of school life or when initial attempts to resolve issues with the tutor or subject teacher have not been successful.
