About this company
The origins of our Trust begins in 1984, when the first Muslim girl’s school – known then as Bradford Muslim Girls Community School – was established by the community, to serve local needs. At the time, there were approximately 26 pupils on roll. The passion to develop an Islamic school delivering high quality education resulted in the birth and development of Feversham College in 1994. In 2022, Feversham Education Trust changed its name to iExel Education Trust to more closely reflect the ethos and culture across all our schools. The iExel ‘family’ represents a collective desire for outstanding education, growth and ambition, and an inclusive and supportive environment to help all those within our community excel.
