Boarding Life at Jamia Al-Hudaa (Boarding Statement)

Boarding Principles and Practice

Jamia Al-Hudaa’s boarding provision is part of the Jamia community. We aim to provide a safe, welcoming and supportive home where every boarder is treated with dignity, can develop confidence and friendships, and is encouraged to grow in knowledge, character and independence.

Our boarding is guided by the Qur’an and Sunnah and by the values of compassion, respect, responsibility and service. We support our students to strengthen their Islamic identity while preparing to take a positive and confident place in British society.

What boarders can expect

Safety and wellbeing
We work to safeguard boarders’ physical and emotional wellbeing. Boarders should know which adults they can approach if they are worried, need help or want to raise a concern.

Respect and belonging
We expect boarders and staff to treat one another with kindness and respect. We aim to ensure that each student feels welcomed and valued, and that differences are treated fairly and sensitively.

Individual support and progress
Staff get to know boarders as individuals and encourage their educational, personal and spiritual development. Support should reflect each student’s needs, strengths and circumstances, and her progress should be reviewed so that help can be adjusted when needed.

Boarder voice
Boarders should have opportunities to share their views, wishes and concerns. We listen and, where possible, explain what action has been taken or why a suggestion cannot be followed.

Positive relationships and behaviour
We encourage good conduct through clear expectations, guidance and encouragement. Bullying, intimidation and discrimination are not accepted. Any concerns are taken seriously and handled in line with Jamia’s relevant policies.

Health, privacy and dignity
We seek to meet boarders’ health needs and to protect their privacy and dignity in boarding accommodation and daily routines.

Partnership with families
We value appropriate communication with parents and carers. We aim to work with them in the interests of each boarder’s welfare, development and progress.

Keeping this statement alive

This statement should be shared with boarders, parents and carers, and staff. We will review it regularly and when there is a significant change to the boarding provision or the way it operates.
