The federal government is sticking to its decision to revoke funding for the Islamic College of South Australia, after an internal review.

The college applied for the review of the initial February decision and Education Minister Simon Birmingham confirmed it found the school was still not complying with necessary standards.

He says the school has not met a set of strict conditions set for it last year, including improving its governance and financial management.
