In early 2008 I devised and successfully implemented the ‘Oxford Muslim Pupils’ Empowerment Programme (OMPEP)’ which was recognised as a unique and groundbreaking educational programme in its field. It was highlighted nationally in the ‘Learning to be Safe’ toolkit by the UK government and acclaimed by leading educationalists.
The Oxford Foundation was founded to develop OMPEP further and explore ways through strategic partnerships of maximising its impact nationally. In addition the objects of the foundation are:
• To develop innovative educational programmes for young people that seek to cultivate and deepen understanding of and between different faiths and cultures, and challenge violent extremism in all its manifestations thereby leading to mutual respect, harmony and belonging;
• Empower and support young people, teachers and others through training and educational resources;
• Seek strategic partners nationally and internationally for purposes of but not limited to research and development and implementation of innovative educational solutions;
• Disseminate and share ideas through but not limited to e-media, conferences and publications.

I do hope you will find this website useful and that you will share in our aims and support us through collaboration as a partnership school, university or a non-profit making body with shared goals.
