Staff at Islamia

A school is ultimately a reflection of its staff, both teachers and support staff. At Islamia we are blessed with an exceptionally dedicated and friendly team of people who help to make the school a home away from home, where the welfare of pupils is our first priority.  
 
In particular, all our teaching staff, with one or two exceptions, has qualified teacher status gained in the UK, and often with many years of teaching experience. Most teachers have been working at Islamia for several years.  In selecting teachers we place emphasis on moral values as well as competence. This means that we are open to teachers from all faiths, although most of our staff (not all) is Muslim. We are fortunate to have a dedicated team that is committed to helping students achieve their full academic potential whilst at the same time cultivating integrity and good moral character.  

Staff development in actively encouraged through on-going professional training and the quality of teaching is regularly monitored to ensure that high standards are maintained.

A list of all our current staff is given below:
