British Muslims in Numbers: Briefing Four

1st September 2015

Carrying forward the findings of the MCB report ‘British Muslims in Numbers’ (2015), the MCB’s Research and Documentation Committee has published its fourth briefing today.

24% of the Muslim population (aged 16 and above) have a degree level qualification or higher. There are 329, 694 Muslim full-time students. Due to the young age profile of Muslims, a large proportion of Muslims in the level 4 or above group will be young and recently graduated. They are a strategic asset at a time of an ageing population and rapidly changing technology.

See Briefing 4: Significant proportion of Muslims in Britain are educationally well-qualified – September 2015.
