AGES 5-14
A school where every boy feels at home. Students build strong foundations in Torah learning and Jewish values, developing a love of learning, strong middos, and the skills to thrive inside and outside the classroom.
A warm, values-rich environment where every child’s Jewish journey begins. The Early Years division welcomes both boys and girls, fostering a strong Jewish identity and love of learning. From Year 1 onwards, the school provides a nurturing environment where every girl is known, supported, and empowered to thrive.
A pivotal stage in a young man’s development, Yeshiva Ketana provides advanced Torah learning alongside personal guidance, helping students build the knowledge, character, and confidence that will shape their future.
An immersive Chassidic environment that draws students from across the UK and around the world. Young men come to Manchester to deepen their Torah study, grow in Chassidus, and become the next generation of Jewish leaders.
A warm, spirited shul where young families deepen their connection to Yiddishkeit. Through shiurim, children’s programmes, family events, kiddushim, and farbrengens, every member of the family has a place to grow while becoming part of a vibrant, supportive community that feels like home.
From daily tefilah to regular learning opportunities, the shul provides a richly authentic chassidic environment where people daven, learn, and grow together. Whether stopping in for Shacharis, or joining a shiur, community members find a welcoming space that serves as a constant source of spiritual connection.
From early childhood through advanced Torah study, we serve families across Manchester, supporting learning, connection, and Jewish growth at every stage.

This is why we do it
Hi, my name is Yuval, and I've been in the cheder for 3 years. As a boy who came from very different backgrounds, I was different when I joined. I looked different, I spoke differently, I davened differently, and my classmates had all the reasons in the world to mock or laugh at me. But they did not.
They just took in what they saw and made me feel especially comfortable, and really allowed me the space and time to fit in perfectly. And the same with the teachers who incredibly, had the ability to tone their teachings perfectly to match each student who entered the classroom.

OYY is the glue that holds the Manchester Lubavitch community together. As the only Lubavitch Chinuch available there are no other options for locals, but the chinuch is so good that it also attracts students from outlying areas who do have other options.
Under the leadership of Rabbi Mendel Cohen, over the past two decades the school has been further developed and refined, and the results speak for themselves. Students are dealt with on an individual basis and the focus is on developing each child to thrive in the school environment and have the passion and skills for a lifetime of learning to the best of his ability.
