Current Job Opportunities
The students and teachers here are passionate about teaching and learning. It is inspiring to work with students and teachers who love discussing literature, politics and ideas.
I enjoy teaching at a school that shares the same values I do, particularly religious pluralism, acceptance of diversity and egalitarianism. Having gone to Emanuel School myself, I really feel that the Emanuel ethos is lived on in its students long after they graduate.
There is an obvious passion and enthusiasm from the teachers and students to constantly improve and progress as a school.
Working in administration is a deeply fulfilling experience - it feels like I have come full circle as I graduated from here. I value the opportunity to contribute to the same close-knit community that shaped me. The small school atmosphere allows me to build meaningful relationships and my personal connection to the school adds a special dimension to my work. It is incredibly rewarding to see the direct results of our efforts in the success and happiness of our School community.
I love the staff, students and community at Emanuel. The core values of the School are clearly reflected in every facet of Emanuel life.
Emanuel School is a great place to work. It is a wonderfully welcoming community that cares for each and every person. It has a great balance of passion, commitment, professionalism and wellbeing.
