In addition to encouraging Muslim participation in  school governance and promoting inclusion of Muslim children into state-school life, AMG hopes to develop research in this field. Research in faith and education is lacking, as it has mainly concentrated on ethnicity as opposed to religious background. We hope to begin research to explore in greater detail the concerns of Muslim children and parents in state-school education, and to explore the issues current governing bodies face.
