Quran classes for families in Canterbury
About 2,900 Canterbury district residents, 1.8% of the area, are Muslim according to the 2021 census, with many students and staff at the University of Kent and Canterbury Christ Church University alongside local families.
Canterbury is a historic cathedral city with a large student population, and the district runs north to the seaside towns of Whitstable and Herne Bay.
Families on the coast and in the villages are often some way from the city’s small number of classes.
Families in Herne Bay and Whitstable can keep a daily routine at home instead of driving into the city each evening.
Quran lessons for Canterbury’s students
Students at the University of Kent and Christ Church can book lessons around lectures and pause during the vacations. Many start or restart with tajweed, and Arabic-speaking teachers are available.
