Emmanuel College is a secondary school based in Gateshead, England. It was founded in 1990 as a City Technology College, i.e. a secondary school which is partly funded by donations from business donors who remain involved in management of the college. Emmanuel now instructs up to 1,250 students aged between 11 and 19, and has over 120 staff working on the purpose-built site. It is part of the Emmanuel Schools Foundation and in each of its four Ofsted inspections it has achieved a status of "Outstanding School".〔, Office for Standards in Education.〕 Students come from a wide variety of socio-economic backgrounds but predominantly from the inner-city areas within Gateshead and Central and West Newcastle upon Tyne.〔 ==Intake policy== The college was described by ''The Guardian'' in 2002 as achieving "consistently outstanding academic results", having received a "glowing" Ofsted report.〔 By law, the school must admit pupils of mixed ability, according to a normal distribution representative of the whole population. In common with other City Technology Colleges, Emmanuel College uses non-verbal reasoning tests set and marked by the National Foundation for Educational Research, a leading independent research organisation, to assess general intelligence, as opposed to prowess in literacy or mathematics. After marking, the NFER places test results into nine separate categories, and informs the school how many are to be taken from each category.〔 Another condition is that two thirds of places are given to students considered to be from the most socio-economically deprived wards within its catchment area, with the other third coming from other areas of the catchment area, ensuring a mix not only academically but socially too.〔(Emmanuel College Intake Policy )〕 In terms of Sixth Form admission, a reduced number of places available (130) are offered, with preference to the school's own Year 11 students.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Emmanuel College, Gateshead」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
