School Description

Iqra High School is an independent Muslim day school for pupils between 11 and 16 years of age. The school is owned by the Iqra Educational and Welfare Trust, which is a charity. The school is non-selective. It is located in the Glodwick area of Oldham on the same site as a madrasa, which is managed by the Khadija Education and Youth Centre and attended by both boys and girls. A good proportion of girls who attend the school also attend the madrasa in the evening to undertake Koranic and Islamic studies. The school was opened in September 2014. It is registered for 100 pupils and there are 71 girls on roll. Although the school is registered for girls and boys, no boys have attended the school. No pupil has an education, health and care plan. Inspection report: Iqra High School, 26–28 March 2019 Page 10 of 13 The school uses no alternative provision. All pupils are of British, Arab or Asian heritage. There are no pupils identified as being disadvantaged. The school offers secular and Islamic education. The school’s vision, values and aims are: ‘Iqra High School will become a centre of achievement for all pupils, irrespective of their background and ethnicity. We sincerely intend to produce learners who are confident individuals, responsible citizens and positive contributors to our own community and society at large. We will become a beacon of high-quality and lifelong learning at all levels. All of our pupils will develop better understanding of Islamic faith, positive self-esteem, confidence, high aspirations and an ambition to achieve their full potential.’ Inspection report: Iqra High School, 26–28 March 2019 Page 11 of 13 Information about this inspection The inspector observed learning in classes. She also observed pupils’ behaviour in classrooms and assessed the school’s promotion of pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. She observed pupils at break and lunchtimes. The inspector looked at the work in pupils’ books. The inspector held meetings with the headteacher, the deputy headteacher and senior leaders responsible for assessment, teaching and learning and the designated lead for safeguarding. She also spoke with the lead for the provision for pupils with SEND. The inspector spoke with two representatives of the proprietorship of the school and three members of the governing body, including the chair. The inspector spoke informally with pupils around school and discussed with some pupils their opinions about the school and their learning. The lead inspector took account of 15 responses to the online Ofsted questionnaire, Parent View. She also took account of seven responses to Ofsted’s staff questionnaire. School policies and other documents were examined to check compliance with the independent school standards and to provide other inspection evidence, including minutes of meetings of the governing body, information on pupils’ progress, the school’s evaluation of its own performance and its development plan. Behaviour and attendance records and information relating to safeguarding were also scrutinised.
