Bury Park Educational Institute is an independent faith day school for boys and girls close to the centre of Luton in an area of high social deprivation. It was established in 2004 in order to provide an education for Muslim boys and girls regardless of their nationality or language. The school has strong links to the adjacent Bury Park Jamia Mosque. The boys and girls are educated separately in the same building. Boys attend the school in the morning and early afternoon and the girls in the late afternoon and early evening. The boys and girls are taught by separate staff. The school does not make use of any alternative provision. There are no students at the school who are disabled or who have special educational needs. The school expresses its aims as ‘reviving the Islamic way of life with a quality education that is taught in a way that is dynamic and applicable to Muslims living in Luton and the United Kingdom as a whole.’ The girls joined the school in 2009 and there are plans for the girls to occupy the current site from September 2016, when the boys will move into a new building.
