    When the Islamia school first opened in 1983, it was a nursery catering for a mere 13 children. It quickly outgrew the house in which it was located and, according to its own history, was substantially oversubscribed: the demand was there for more places. To be eligible for funding, as a primary school, it needed to be able to cater for at least 17...

    That joy was to be shortlived. The education committee might have been on board, but the main struggle, at council level, was about planning applications. While Islamia first submitted its application in August 1986, it was only considered months later, in January 1987. In a non-bylined article entitled “Anti Muslim claim as Brent drags its heels” ...

    By the time the Islamia school had submitted its application for state funding, the Rushdie affair was in full swing. The Times Educational Supplement couched these governmental decisions in what it called “a jittery religious and political climate”, amid the growth of Islamic fundamentalism. A debate about the place of Muslims in Britain was unfol...

    The Islamia school did not see itself as a separate school. From the outset it consistently aimed to work with the state education system. This is evidenced as early as 1986, in the introduction to the school’s proposal for new premises: A similar sentiment was expressed in an oral submission the Islamia School Trust made to Brent Council’s working...
