Success Story

The Manchester Islamic High School for Girls was established in September 1991 by the Manchester Islamic Educational Trust Ltd, to meet the demands of the community wanting to establish a unique school exclusively specializing in the educational of Muslim girls.

The Manchester Islamic Educational Trust Ltd is charity organization encompassing a further two schools: The Manchester Muslim Preparatory School and Kassim Darwish Grammar School for Boys.

MIHSG was the first Muslim school in Manchester, which successfully combined the teaching of Islam along with the national curriculum, giving the girls the best of the worlds.

The school was rated outstanding for the third year running in its latest glowing Ofsted report in April 2019, and around 40 percent of the teaching staff are non-Muslim.

According to the Association of Muslim Schools, the UK has different types of schools; Madrassas are those religious schools which are attached to mosques, while Full-time Muslim schools aren’t focused on the recitation of the Holy Qur’an.

For years, independent Islamic schools remained at the top score of UK GCSE results, setting an example for faith schools as successful, highly-achieving and inspiring educational institutes in Britain.

The Muslim schools’ overall average of students who received 5 or more A*- C grade GCSEs, including English & Maths, exceeded the national average with 9 schools achieving a 100% success rate – only 55 schools achieved the 100% landmark in the whole of the UK.
