College Life
The facilities at Hijaz provide one of the best learning environments for Muslims available anywhere in the world
Hijazi students are accomadated in newly built dormitories. There are fully equipped science and Information Technology Labs which facilitate for studies up to A-Level.
A football pitch is currently available for students and there are plans to refurbish and reopen the swimming pool. Badminton, table tennis, volley ball facilities are available in the Gym during weekends. To cater for the physical well being amongst our students, there are plans for a Leisure Complex. This Leisure Complex, shall include all the facilities for playing football, cricket and other field sports. Upon completion of The Leisure Complex, the first annual Muslim Sports Festival will be initiated, whereby young Muslims can come together from across the country and Europe, to show their talents and skills and the opportunity to compete to win great prizes.
The site accommodates a centrally located Mosque, where students and staff can offer their prayers. Prayer is the fundamental pillar of Islam and the presence of all students at prayer time ensures the strength of their "Imaan" and "lhsan".
The diet of each student is taken care of with a varied meal to cater for the international flavour of Hijazi students. Students have regular access to a doctor at the local surgery, ensuring medical needs of the students are provided.
Information Technology Facilities
In the modern technical age, we recognise that our students must possess excellent IT skills in order to be successful in their careers. As such, the College is continuously looking to expand its IT facilities, and currently students have ample access to computers.
We have a general drop-in-room which students and staff can utilize, and a main IT room is that is used for teaching purposes.
Sports, Games and Extra-Curricular Activities
The College offers a range of sporting and extra-curricular activities for both students and staff, to utilize this time to strengthen relationships between the whole College. With its planned Leisure Complex, it will be able to facilitate a wider range for sports. This is the football pitch one of the completed items of the Leisure Complex.
The Imam Ghazzali Library
The Imam Al-Ghazzali Library at Hijaz enables both staff and students to utilise a range of Arabic, English and Urdu resources. For teaching and studying purposes students and staff also have access to a photocopier. An Audio and Visual section at Hijaz is planned whch when complete will allow library users to listen to lectures and other educational materials of both the professional and religious nature on either a personal basis or in a group setting. Eventually all students will be able to loan books using the Hijazi computerised borrowing and retrieval system, which has been specially designed for Hijaz. The library is continually developing to meet the changing educational and welfare needs of the students. Plans are in place to build a purpose built Library/Masjid complex which will hold up to 15,000 books.
