Welcome to IQRA Islamic School site!

Iqra Islamic School is an educational institution that promotes discipline and academic excellence, respect, and responsibility, in a moral and safe learning environment. Our code of conduct is patterned after the Ontario Code of Conduct for schools and the basic principles of Islam. All members of our school community, whether they are students, parents or teachers, have the right to feel and be safe. In addition, all students have the right to be educated in an atmosphere which promotes critical thinking skills. With this right comes the responsibility to behave as good Muslims and to be accountable for actions that put at risk the safety of others or oneself. We ask that families review this Code of Conduct so that all parties are familiar with school expectations and procedures.

NEW LOCATION

Iqra Islamic School has re-opened after winter break on Monday 8th January, 2007 at our NEW LOCATION: 5751 Coopers Ave., Mississauga (just south of the previous school building).

PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE

Asalam Walaykum!

On behalf of the staff, I would like to welcome all our new students and their parents. I am certain that becoming a member of the Iqra community will mark a definite new chapter as we embark on our collective mission to provide the best in education to our students.

Iqra’s rigorous academic procedures, extensive investments, steadfast commitment to quality and firm management have shaped the dynamics of our institution that exceeds the standards of the Ontario Curriculum. Iqra was established as a private independent school in 1997 to cater to the growing demand for an Islamic education in Mississauga. In Arabic, the term ‘Iqra’ means ‘to read’ and was the first word of the Quran to be revealed to our beloved Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). Therefore, our curriculum also inculcates religious and moral principles to its students in order to enhance their Islamic personality.

As the principal, I hope that the experiences gained at Iqra will gear our students towards the bright and prosperous future they deserve.

I wish you all the very best of success!

Dr. Ahmed Gaffuri
Principal
