Zaytouna Primary is a larger than average, over-subscribed inner city Islamic Faith school dedicated to providing an excellent education for all our children in partnership with Transform Trust. Located in a commercial district of the city, we draw most of our children from the inner-city area of Normanton. After a period of significant growth and flourishment, we are now at full capacity and operating a waiting list; our staff team is now stable, too. Parents from a wider area are now choosing us as their first preference because of our vibrant academic offer, our provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), as well as our Islamic distinctiveness.
Almost all of our children are from minority ethnic backgrounds and a high proportion speak English as an additional language (EAL). Drawing from areas of significant deprivation, the proportion of disadvantaged children is above the national average and growing. The number of children with SEND, including those with an education, health and care plan (EHCP) is broadly in line with the national average and increasing. Our curriculum is the universal entitlement for all children and allows everyone to grow, develop and flourish - this is something we are extremely proud of.
Underpinned by the fundamental principles of ‘Peace, Unity and Equality’, we aim throughout our curriculum and ethos to develop the mind, body and soul, with ‘Everyone a Learner and Everyone a Leader.’
We have a strong safeguarding culture, serving one of the most deprived areas in Derby City. Children are exposed to domestic violence, high unemployment and criminal activity. High levels of poverty were more apparent during the lockdown periods. We work in partnership with a local charity to provide substantial food hampers on a regular basis and support our families with digital technologies, clothing and translation services.
As an anchor institution in Derby, we work closely with the following organisations:
• Association of Muslim Schools
• Derby Jamia Mosque
• Derby University
• Our Future Derby
• Derbyshire Cricket Club
• Derby Music Partnership
• Progressive Sports
• World Class Schools organisation
Working for Zaytouna provides the opportunities to #DoThingsDifferently in the knowledge that you are part of a team of experts who know what good primary education looks like.
