Australian International Academy

Australian International Academy is an Islamic school group in various locations in Australia. The school was Australia's first Muslim college and was then known as King Khalid. Its primary school was set up in 1999 with a grant from Saudi Arabia, that being the only foreign money the school has received.[1]

A new campus, based in Caroline Springs, commenced operation at the beginning of 2014.

Over the past decade, the Academy has expanded into New South Wales by purchasing a school in South Strathfield (previously known as Noor Al Houda Islamic College) and an additional campus in Kellyville.

The Academy also has a campus in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E which in 2013 became a fully accredited International Baccalaureate (IB).

The Australian International Academy is also accredited with being the first and only Muslim school to offer all three IB programmes in the southern hemisphere.[2]
