Islamic College of South Australia

The Islamic College of South Australia is in West Croydon, a suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. It offers classes from Kindergarten to Year 12.

It has been a working school since 1997 but opened in 1926, where it first set up next to the Wandana Mosque on Wandana Avenue in Gilles Plains. It moved to 22A Cedar Avenue in West Croydon in 2000.

The Islamic College of South Australia is owned and managed by the Australian Federation of Islamic Councils (AFIC).

In 2012 the school was in dispute with AFIC in regards to financial irregularities, which were uncovered during a federal audit. In 2013 a female staff member was dismissed for failing to adhere to the school's dress code. The Teachers' Union took the matter to Fair Work Australia.

In May 2015 parents with-held their children from attending the college and have accused the board of firing principals and teachers. The Imams Council of South Australia has expressed its concern and the federal education minister saying he takes these issues very seriously.

In early July the media had reported of a member of the board taking a male student to a haircut salon forcing him to have a haircut.His mother did not give permission to his son to be taken to the hair salon.

In October 2015 the entire school board was sacked. In December 2015 all government funding for the college, was frozen.

In February 2017 the federal Minister for Education and Training, Simon Birmingham said the school had failed meet obligations relating to governance, to financial management and to regular reporting. He said federal funding for the school will cease in April 2017.

In March 2017 it was reported that, following a police request, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission have been undertaking financial investigations into the more than $1 million potentially missing and the high rentals paid to AFIC.
