Mission Statement
It is our duty to protect them and give them knowledge to succeed in this life and the next. As our future, our children need to be aware of their responsibilities, actions and duties in this life so that they may succeed and accomplish their goals and achieve success in the hereafter. Islam can only thrive when Islamic education is imparted to our youth, in order to create a well-rounded socially aware individual who knows the purpose and the methodology of life. We need to cultivate leadership among our students for the advancement of the Ummah.

Kathir ibn Qays said: I was sitting with AbudDarda' in the mosque of Damascus. A man came to him and said: AbudDarda, I have come to you from the town of the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) for a tradition that I have heard you relate from the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him). I have come for no other purpose. He said: I heard the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) say: If anyone travels on a road in search of knowledge, Allah will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise. The angels will lower their wings in their great pleasure with one who seeks knowledge, the inhabitants of the heavens and the Earth and the fish in the deep waters will ask forgiveness for the learned man. The superiority of the learned man over the devout is like that of the moon, on the night when it is full, over the rest of the stars. The learned are the heirs of the Prophets, and the Prophets leave neither dinar nor dirham, leaving only knowledge, and he who takes it takes an abundant portion.

Hadith no. 1631 Sunan of Abu-Dawood

Aims and Objectives
The aims of our school will be to deliver the full range of National Curriculum subjects for the relevant stages within an environment with an Islamic Ethos. Thus we hope to facilitate and encourage the building of a strong moral character, together with sound academic performance, amongst our pupils. By providing stimulating and differentiated work, setting tasks and goals that are achievable by all, we aim to encourage all pupils within the school.

We hope to equip our pupils with skills to face the challenges of today's changing world by encouraging communication, personal growth and confidence at all levels. A close co-operation between the school, parents and the wider community will also be one of our important priorities, as research shows that when this is the case, the objectives are met faster and more efficiently.

It is our desire to make our pupils ambassadors and leaders of the future, to make a positive contribution to our community at large. Insha-Allah we hope to make them beacons of light for generations to follow.

 
Teachers and Organisation
Our Staff have the necessary experience and capacity to deliver a sound education. Our aim is also to establish a framework to support staff in the tasks of teaching and guidance so they can deliver the aims of the school. We also intend to promote co-operation and unity by providing an effective channel of communication for parents and carers.

Olive Tree School aspires to employ and attract the best teachers to teach our children. In order to do so, we must pay these teachers competitive salaries with mainstream state education. Teachers salaries vary greatly depending on level of education and level of teaching. An average salary has been calculated as being 16,000 Sterling pounds per annum.
