Rawdhatul Uloom is an Islamic Primary School which was established in 1992 in Blackburn, providing primary education to children aged 4 to 11 years of age in a caring Islamic environment. Rawdhatul uloom is a non-profit making, community based institution, run under the UK registered charity "Siddiqiyya Educational Trust" (Charity Commission reg. no: 1110960 ).
Alhamdulillah (All praise is to ALLAH) over the years, we have developed a comprehensive Islamic education program with education taught to DFE standards and final registration was achieved on 7th January 2000. "Rawdhatul Uloom" in Arabic means: "The Garden of Knowledge." This name was given by Sheikh Maulana Abrarul Haqq Sahib (Rahimahullah) of Hardoi, India.
Around the year 1990, a concerned Muslim parent living in Blackburn whose daughter was about to reach the age of 5 was greatly perturbed regarding her upbringing. The mentality prevalent during that time was that education without Deen will suffice and it was this concern that planted the seeds of Rawdhatul Uloom Islamic Primary School.
