Darul Uloom London School is not currently meeting several independent school standards, particularly in the areas of education quality, safeguarding, and leadership. The school's overall performance remains inconsistent, particularly in how foundational knowledge and skills are developed among pupils. While there are efforts underway to enhance the curriculum, especially in the sixth form, significant concerns persist regarding the management of statutory duties and safeguarding arrangements. This inspection marks the first progress monitoring since the school was previously judged as requiring improvement in February 2025.
