Safeguarding at Our Islamic School

We strive to create an environment where every child feels safe, valued, and respected—spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Rooted in the principles of rahmah (compassion) and ʿadl (justice), our school nurtures a culture of trust and dignity.

We encourage students to speak openly about anything that concerns them, and we ensure they feel confident that they will be heard with empathy and discretion. Staff members are trained to recognize signs of distress, abuse, or neglect, and follow clear, robust procedures to provide timely support, protection, and justice.

In line with Islamic values, we uphold modesty and respect in all aspects of school life:

• Dress Code: Students and staff observe appropriate Islamic attire, fostering self-respect and spiritual identity.

• Gender Interaction: We maintain respectful gender separation in learning spaces, activities, and facilities, promoting focus, comfort, and mutual dignity.

• Privacy and Boundaries: We safeguard personal space and uphold confidentiality, ensuring every child’s wellbeing is protected.

Our commitment to safeguarding is not just policy—it is an amanah we carry with sincerity and vigilance, striving to create a school environment that reflects the mercy and guidance of our faith.
