Entry information

Jamea Al Kauthar accepts UK applicants aged 11–18 at the start of the forthcoming academic year, except for Year 11. Applications require school and madrasah reports, references, identity documents and a GP medical form. Its published application information does not specify an entrance test or a 2027 date, so ask admissions about Year 7 availability and selection.

Entry stage: Year 7 entry within the school’s 11–18 girls’ residential programme; the school also excludes entry in Year 11.

The admissions process

  • Submit the school application form with the requested school and madrasah reports, two non-family character references, ID and GP-completed medical form.
  • The school asks for predicted or actual SATs/GCSE results when available.
  • The published application page does not specify an assessment or interview; confirm the current Year 7 process with admissions.
