East Preston Islamic College
Success Here and Hereafter
Why EPIC
Our students are empowered to learn and achieve their goals here and hereafter, in line with our school motto ‘Success here and hereafter.’ We provide a nurturing Islamic environment where students are taught skills to lead and use their voice to enact positive change through a curriculum driven by values taught by the Prophet Muhammad (s). We aim to foster a lifelong love for learning and a pursuit of excellence in education and in life.
Our vision at East Preston Islamic College is to prepare the next generation of Muslims to be committed, compassionate and hardworking citizens, who are ready to contribute positively and productively to the Australian society. The College aims to ensure that the diverse needs, achievements and strengths of every individual within our learning community are recognised and celebrated through a supportive environment that builds on the strengths within our unique Islamic community.
We realise the joint responsibility we share in helping your child to grow and develop to their natural and full potential. At East Preston Islamic College, we welcome the active participation and assistance of parents and guardians in our school life.

Success Stories
Child safe standards for all Victorian schools
At East Preston Islamic College, we are responsible for keeping our students safe. Schools have to meet legal requirements for the care, safety and welfare of students. From 1 August 2016, all schools need to meet child safe standards to achieve a zero tolerance to child abuse.
The Victorian Government is phasing in Child Safe Standards for organisations that work with children, including schools. Children have the right to be safe and protected, at school. It is important that you feel confident that your child is safe and well, in the care of their school. Over the course of this year, we will display our child safe policies, codes of conduct and other relevant information regarding child safe standards on our college website, newsletter etc.
East Preston Islamic College has zero tolerance for child abuse and actively works to listen and empower our students.
