Immanuel Christian School is an independent non-selective day school which occupies a former chapel building on the edge of the village of Westerleigh, in South Gloucestershire. It caters for boys and girls aged from four to 11 years. The school is registered for 35 pupils. It opened in September 2013 with two pupils. Currently, there are nine pupils on roll, including one Reception-aged child who attends full time. Most pupils were educated at home before joining the school. There are currently no pupils with a statement of special educational needs. Most pupils are of White British heritage, although there are a number from other minority ethnic groups. All speak English as their first language. The school aims to provide a Christian-based education and ‘to support parents in their task of preparing their children for a place in society’. It is open to pupils of any or no faith whose parents accept the school’s underlying Christian ethos and teaching. The school provides part-time education one day a week for a small number of pupils who are otherwise educated at home. One of these children is in the Reception class and the other is in the Nursery class.
