Islamic Secdonary School for Girls

Islamic Girls' Secondary School

Established on the 6th September 1994 with two classes and 34 girls, it now works as a full school for children aged 7-11.

Gloucestershire Islamic Secondary School for Girls

The school is under the management of the Gloucester Muslim Welfare Association, a fully-registered UK charity, dependent solely on fees and contributions from donors.

This school provides a high standard secular and Islamic education, with particular emphasis on spiritual and moral development based on Islamic teachings.

Islamic advice service

The school provides an Islamic advice service on important Islamic issues such as marriage, death, birth, inheritance, women's rights and divorce.

It also arranges conferences on current Islamic topics, with non-Muslims welcomed to gain Islamic knowledge and awareness.

This is the only Islamic School for Girls in the south west. Students come from as far away as Bristol, Swindon and Worcester to attend.
