About Us

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

All praise is due to Allah ﷺ who has blessed us with the power of emaan and knowledge. Salutations to our beloved Prophet ﷺ. We are delighted to welcome you to Oakwood Primary School, a primary school with an Islamic ethos embedded within our curriculum, which is aligned with the UK National Curriculum. We aim to ensure that all children are offered a broad and balanced curriculum — not only to enhance their knowledge, skills and understanding, but also to meet their spiritual, moral, emotional, physical and social needs.

Our qualified and experienced teachers of both Islamic and National Curriculum subjects are committed to working with children to help and support them to achieve their full potential. Oakwood Primary School works closely with all children and their families in order to develop their Akhlaq, Adhab and Tarbiyyah, and to maintain high standards in everything they do within an Islamic setting that also offers a broad and balanced National Curriculum.

Our curriculum is modern, well devised and tailored to meet the needs of British Muslim children today. We review it regularly to ensure it remains up to date and meets current curriculum expectations as well as the needs of our children. Our ethos is that all students should ‘fly high’ — not only as a good Muslim, but also as a proud British citizen.
