Our students are taught the Islamic tradition in a manner that is both practical and relevant to them as Canadian Muslims. This approach ensures GLA students are prepared to excel in all aspects of their lives.
GLA is a ministry inspected K-12 school. We teach in accordance with the Ontario curriculum, and challenge our students to be their best in a safe, motivating classroom environment
GLA students have a 100% acceptance rate to post secondary studies. Our students consistently secure seats in competitive programs and often assume leadership positions in community and academic settings.
We believe that important lessons are taught outside the classroom! Our students are provided with leadership in the community, as we have formed strong partnerships with prominent Muslim organizations in the GTA
The Gibraltar Leadership Academy strives to instil Islamic character in our students, ensuring their development as socially responsible citizens of Canada.
Gibraltar Leadership Academy, a registered non-profit organization, was founded in 2017 by a dedicated group of Muslim educators to serve the diverse Muslim community in the Greater Toronto Area. At GLA, we take pride in offering a well-rounded education that extends beyond the classroom, providing our students with a strong academic foundation and a wealth of extracurricular opportunities to help them thrive in all aspects of life.
We’re proud to be an innovative Islam-focused school, that prides itself on genuine care and consideration for our students
Advanced Placement (AP) classes offer significant benefits for high school students in the Canadian context, providing an opportunity to pursue university-level coursework while still in secondary school. These courses not only challenge students academically, but also help them develop critical thinking, time management, and research skills that are essential for post-secondary success. AP exams can lead to university credit or advanced standing at many Canadian institutions, potentially saving students both time and tuition costs. Additionally, completing AP courses demonstrates academic rigour and initiative, which can strengthen applications to competitive university programs across Canada and internationally.
We don’t just give students an education and experiences that set them up for success in a career, we help them develop a strong Muslim Canadian identity to succeed in all aspects of their lives.
