There has never been a better time to work at BMGS than now. This is no ordinary school. We are a lovely school with a genuine ‘feel good factor’ throughout. BMGS is an ambitious and caring community, committed to fulfilling the gifts of each student, reflected in the School’s mission statement. Our mission is summed up by 3 words, Success for All, which underpin what we’re all about.

We had an Ofsted visit in Dec 2022 and school has been judged Requires Improvement. The new Ofsted framework emphasise more on a rich and varied curriculum and how it is taught than pupil progress and attainment in GCSEs. Regardless of current Ofsted grading of Requires Improvement, the school has continued to maintain its ranking in the top 20% nationally for Progress 8. The school’s GCSE results have been top of the borough for the last five consecutive years. The school has a track record of sustainable school improvements, and are looking to strengthen our team in the future.

Bolton Muslim Girls’ School is always over-subscribed with first choice applications. To meet with the growing demands for places and due to school’s popularity as a high achieving school, the school had been successful in securing a capital funding for expansion in 2019. The additional capacity resulted in 30 additional places in Yr.7 with effect from 2020. The school will have 750 pupils on roll by September 2024. It is an exciting time at Bolton Muslim Girls’ School. The increased pupil population and recent Ofsted outcome has generated more career opportunities for staff through the review of the current curriculum and staffing structure. All DT facilities are currently located on the second floor of the Mill Building adjacent to the school and we will continue to expand them further through the development of the third floor and Ground Floor of the Mill Building.

"Leaders have high expectations of pupils’ behaviour. Most pupils meet these expectations. Classrooms are calm and orderly places. Pupils settle to their work and behave very well in lessons" Ofsted December 2022

"Pupils are exceptionally keen to do well in class. Their concentration in lessons helps them to learn and remember more" Ofsted December 2022
