Founder's Message
Assalamu Alaikum, Peace Be with You. I would like to extend a warm welcome to you to Islamia Girls School.
Founded in 1989, our vision was to establish a school where students felt safe, cared for, and enjoyed learning. We sought to not only prepare our students for the academic assessments that lay ahead, but equally to take a holistic view of life and place emphasis on their spiritual and moral well-being.
We hoped to encourage our students to appreciate the gift of life and to equip them with knowledge, wisdom and compassion. We believed then, as we do today, that to develop into well rounded individuals, each student had to experience life beyond our walls and learn about the world around them.
Education is the key to building peace and understanding between people. Islamia Schools were founded to keep that light alive. At Islamia Girl’s, it is our aim to nurture a society of forward-thinking, conscientious young Muslim women who contribute positively and valuably to our multi-faith, multi-cultural Britain and beyond.
To that end, appreciating differences and respecting others has always been a central theme in our school. To expose them to the wider community, we provide our students with extracurricular opportunities to take part in interfaith programmes, sporting competitions, business challenges and debating contests with other schools across the country.
Our schools have achieved ratings of 'Outstanding' for student behaviour and attitudes, as well as for personal development. We’ve achieved 'Good' for our quality of education and for our leadership and management (Oftsed 2023). Our consistently high GCSE results demonstrate that we are achieving our mission to be an overall provider of excellent education and opportunities.
