Welcome from the Head Teacher
Bushra Hussain
Asalaamualaikum and welcome to our school website.
Rida Girls High School is a school for girls aged 11 to 16, formed in 2017. We started with an intake of just 8 girls into Year 7 and we look forward to opening our doors to many more as the years progress.
Myself, the Governing Body and the teachers are committed to providing an outstanding environment for the learning and development for our girls.
The vision of Rida Schools is to grow a generation of confident, secure and intellectual young women who can become ambassadors of both education and faith. To produce adults who inspire others, are role models through their character and manners and can personify the young British Muslim woman.
Our numbers will start small, but with the grace of the Almighty we will grow and be able to benefit a large number of girls in our community.
All the girls that enter our doors are unique and we look forward to exploring their talents, nurturing their abilities and helping them achieve to their full potential.
We are a school that has a Muslim faith ethos and we look forward to contributing to society both locally and globally.
Our Islamic values are British values and we welcome students from all faiths and none.
Please, come and visit us, meet our girls and find out what we can do for yours.
