Daily School Life
Emanuel teaches Monday to Friday, the school day beginning at 08.30 and ending at 15.45. Saturdays are also utilised for sporting fixtures, events and detentions, with Wednesday afternoons reserved for senior sports fixtures also. There are daily assemblies, including one Chapel assembly a week across each year group, and weekly house meetings. Termly headmaster's addresses are given at the beginning and end of each of three terms, common in the British educational system.
Uniform is worn from Hill to Year Eleven, and consists of a navy blazer, white shirt, school tie, charcoal grey trousers and black shoes. Girls' uniform consists of a navy blazer with a blue blouse and navy skirt or trousers. Whilst exempt from uniform, the Sixth Form has its own formal dress code, requiring students to wear a grey, blue or black conventional, two or three-piece business suit, shirt and tie, or female equivalent.
