About

Birchfield independent Girls' school in the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful. Birchfield Independent Girls School (BIGS) is an independent Muslim faith-based school that provides an excellent Islamic education for Muslim girls in Birmingham.

We provide schooling that works towards the development of the whole child in a dynamic, spiritual and purposeful community. Clear communication, positive relationships, real life experiences and a richly varied curriculum are all integral components in the educational journey of our Muslim girls.

Our school motto 'In the footsteps of Aisha (RA)', epitomises all the qualities we strive to develop in our girls. The mother of the believers, Aisha (RA), was well renowned for her passion for knowledge, together with her excellence in manners and conduct.

At Birchfield Independent Girls School, we pride ourselves on delivering an exceptional Islamic education that nurtures students spiritual growth, moral development, and understanding of our faith. Our dedicated staff ensures that Islamic teachings are integrated into daily life, fostering a strong sense of identity, respect, and community among our students.
