The Nottingham Emmanuel School

School is just overall awful, you can't go to the toilet during lesson unless you have toilet pass even though It is a basic human need.Also, they only give you four minutes to get to a lesson and most teachers keep you back 2 minutes.For exampl, once my teacher kept me for 3 minutes and I had to go the other side of the school but somehow I still made it and once I had to go to the desperately and they didn't let me so I had to hold for 1 hour.

I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Nottingham Emmanuel School! 🎉 As a former student, I can't say enough good things about this amazing school. The teachers and staff are incredibly supportive and dedicated to helping students succeed. They create a warm and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. The wide range of extracurricular activities and clubs provided so many opportunities for personal growth and exploration. Plus, the friendships I made there are ones that will last a lifetime. If you're looking for a school that truly cares about its students and provides an excellent education, I highly recommend Nottingham Emmanuel School. It's a place where you can thrive academically and personally. Thank you, Nottingham Emmanuel School, for making my school years unforgettable!

Terrible, there was a
Student who wanted to pray and made sure that he wasn’t distracting anyone in the school and they still didn’t
let him it is a disgrace to the Muslim community.

When I first began here in year 7 it was all well and good but when the previous head teacher left and new head teacher and deputy heads come to the school it become so much worse. Teachers were hired that I’m telling you they can’t teach and when we complained bc yk GCSEs are kind of important we would just be sent to isolation and punished and shamed for our opinions. This school claims to support all cultures and religions but continuously try to push the concept of Christianity in our faces by telling students of other religions “ go read the bible so you can say you’ve read the most popular book in the world 😃” and then denying Islamic students to pray during Ramadan bc apparently there isn’t the staffing to do it. Many children were either told they couldn’t pray or that they must do it in front of their class. I’m not a religious person but it is basic knowledge that prayer is seen as something personal meanwhile some children were made to pray while the entire class watches on can feel humiliating. Teachers are also racist and homophobic and when these issues are brought to the attention of those in power nothing is done. They claim to have a 0 tolerance policy on bullying but in the space of 2 months I’ve had threats made to my entire family by a girl and when I talked to a teacher I was told “it was a joke she didn’t mean it” meanwhile I was fearing for my life so when I went to the head teacher and talked to her about the situation I get in trouble bc I made the teacher look bad to her boss. Another time a girl body shamed me constantly to the point I was to scared to get changed for p.e with the rest of my class and once again I go to a teacher to ask if there is anywhere else I can change. My request is denied and when I tell her I still feel uncomfortable I’m told I’m “over reacting” meanwhile the effect of the things that girl said to me has left some lasting damage and a constant worry I’m not good enough and I can’t be seen as female bc I quote on quote “have no tits so I can’t be classified as a woman and I don’t even have the right to be classed as a woman bc of this” comments like this which were reported were basically swept under the rug and therefore more comments were made constantly which lead me to developing an eating disorder and body dismorphia along with other mental health issues because of the schools lack of action when it comes to bullying. At the end of the 21-22 academic year most teachers left and found employment elsewhere which was especially difficult as me and other students agree that all the teachers that left were the ones we need and wish we could still have as we felt we were improving so much with them as our teachers.at the beginning of that academic year there were roughly 12 English teachers and then the following academic year we started the year with 3 English teachers that taught in the school the year before. If this review doesn’t highlight the flaws within this school I don’t know what will.
