History

We began as one of the first Muslim Schools in the UK.

Education was not an equal space for Muslim children before. Yusuf Islam recognised this in the 80s and decided to build a school that could provide a safe and inclusive environment for Muslim students to excel academically. 

In 1983, Islamia Primary School was founded to meet a vital need. As our children progressed, we expanded into secondary education—establishing a a boys' school in 1996 (following the success of our girl's school, established in 1989).

Our enduring legacy has been to build the way where none exists. Almost three decades on, Brondesbury College continues to nurture the British Muslim pioneers of tomorrow. Read Founder’s Message

Pupils are extremely courteous and respectful to each other and adults. They are highly motivated and have a thirst for learning. Pupils feel very proud of their school. Their attendance is above average.
