Brondesbury College London in its own words
In its own words: "In 1996, my wife, Fawziah, and I founded the Brondesbury College for Boy's secondary school. This was following the success of our primary school (1983) and our girl's secondary school (1989), all of which are based in London. Education is the key to building peace and understanding between people. Islamia Schools were founded to keep that light alive."
From the headteacher's welcome: "Welcome to Brondesbury College for Boys. It is my pleasure to introduce you to our thriving independent school, where our mission is to provide a supportive and inspiring educational environment rooted in strong Islamic values and academic excellence. At Brondesbury College, we are committed to helping every boy grow in knowledge character, confidence, and faith."
Clubs and activities named on the school's website include football, judo, chess, STEM, debating, Duke of Edinburgh and French.
