Quran classes for families in East Renfrewshire
About 5,300 East Renfrewshire residents, 5.5% of the area, are Muslim according to Scotland’s Census 2022. That is the second-highest share of any council area in Scotland, after Glasgow City, and many families moved out from the south side of Glasgow.
East Renfrewshire’s schools are among the highest-performing in Scotland, and children’s weeks are busy with homework, clubs and activities.
Families in Newton Mearns, Eaglesham and Neilston can be a drive away from the established classes in Pollokshields and Govanhill, especially on dark winter evenings.
Grandparents may speak Urdu or Panjabi at home. Urdu-speaking teachers are available, and lessons can also be fully in English.
Lessons that fit the Scottish school year
Scottish schools break up in late June and return in mid-August. Families can keep lessons going through the summer, pause them, or add extra days for a Noorani Qaida or hifz push before the new term.
