A BRADFORD Islamic school has been praised by inspectors for the “outstanding” behaviour of its pupils.

Eternal Light School, off Little Horton Lane is an independent school with around 150 pupils. An Ofsted report into the school has just been released, rating the school “good” overall.

But the school was given the top rating of outstanding for personal development, behaviour and welfare. In the newly published report, inspectors said: “Pupils’ understanding of British values is exceptional and their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is a strength of the school.

“Teachers are successful in ensuring that the school is a thriving learning community.

“The school provides a good quality of education that successfully combines Islamic studies with secular subjects.

“The proprietors are determined to ensure that the boys become positive Muslim role models in British society.”
