Tree of Life

 

The education of children is an enormous responsibility that we at Islamia Girls’ School take very seriously.  Our mission statement encapsulates our approach to education. We endeavour to create a culture that strengthens faith and values integrity above all else. Academic success and excellence are seen as a consequence of good character, which is what we strive to inculcate in our girls. Compassion towards all of humanity and respect for people from all backgrounds and walks of life is encouraged through various schemes to benefit the community, as the principle of Islam states “There is no superiority of Arab over non-Arab or black over white, except in piety.”

 

Quote

One of the strengths of the school lies in its size and family atmosphere. Pupils are able to develop strong relationships with their colleagues and friendships formed at Islamia tend to continue well into adult life.  This sense of community is further enhanced by the overwhelming sense of responsibility and dedication of educators to the intellectual, spiritual and emotional welfare of pupils. 
 
We are committed to creating a generation of confident and educated students who will become beacon-like figures in our society insha’allah.  To achieve this we try to develop in all our students the ability to think clearly and independently and the courage to stand up for truth and right at all times. We hope that their experience with us assists them in becoming suitable ambassadors for Islam, with a feeling of unity and a sense of service to our community, both Muslim and non-Muslim.

QuoteAt Islamia a spirit of endeavour is actively promoted by providing opportunities and support for students to transcend their perceived limits. This is exemplified by our excellent academic record both in the sciences and the arts, which is only achieved by pushing girls to venture beyond normal expectations. Outside of the classroom girls are also encouraged to participate in various sporting activities and to compete in local and national events. 
 
Overall we are dedicated to encouraging our girls to develop their own personal identity, which will allow them to express their individuality whilst maintaining a sense of equality and cohesion amongst fellow students.
