About the Schools

 

MIGSG was established in 1991 and now has 280 girls on roll aged 11-16. In 2023 the school relocated to its current site in West Didsbury, co-located with our prep school. At that time the site benefitted from significant investment and refurbishment, providing a bright and motivational learning environment.

KDGB was established in 1999 and caters for up to approximately 200 students aged 11 to 16. It is located in the heart of Manchester and with a close-knit, community-focused environment where every student is known and supported.

Both schools combine a faith-based education with the national curriculum, providing students with an excellent education in a safe and caring Islamic environment that encourages personal growth and individuality. The schools strive to create a harmonious balance between academic rigor, sports, cultural activities, and community involvement.

The aim is to foster intellectual curiosity and social awareness in the students. While academic knowledge is essential, we believe that a true education challenges student to push the boundaries of their understanding. As part of MIET, the school’s faith-based ethos influences every aspect of school life, creating a welcoming, family-oriented atmosphere among staff and students.

Through the teaching and practice of Islam, in the light of the Qur’an and Sunnah, the aim is to help pupils to develop a love for Allah (SWT) and confidence in their identity as young Muslims.

 

Vision

The schools prepare students to understand, contribute to, and succeed in a rapidly changing society, using the injunctions and values expressed by Islam and thus make the world a better, a more just, a more tolerant place.
We will ensure that our students develop both the skills an outstanding education provides and the competencies essential for success and leadership in the emerging creative economy without losing their faith and the core values of their belief.

We will also lead in generating practical and theoretical knowledge that enables people to better understand our world and improve conditions for local and global communities. We want to develop a new generation of British Muslims proud of being British and Muslim.
