Our moral and spiritual emphasis is key to our development of strong, independent and upright individuals. Our bespoke Tarbiyyah (Islamic Nurturing) and PSHE curriculum alongside our continuous support mechanisms enable the children to learn to be kind to themselves and others and maintain a healthy perspective.
Our pastoral team offers support and guidance at an individual level and we pay close attention to the motivations, strengths and ambitions of each boy. Feedback and close communication with parents is vital to ensure the pupils prosper and remain happy and confident.
Our students are taught to be empathetic and show a sense of responsibility to those around them within their own school and at a wider community level. Initiatives such as mentoring, student council, house systems and our Charity, Sustainability and Community Service programmes are fundamental aspects of our setting.

We believe that healthy competition is a good way to develop confidence and mental strength and therefore internal and external challenges are set for all disciplines. We also use competition to network, meet new people and establish the bonds between fellow students.

AN ISLAMIC BACKBONE

Our ethos is Islamic and we firmly believe that establishing Prophetic guidance will bring the best outcomes for our students. We place heavy emphasis on ensuring pupils have the best Manners as stated by our Prophet (sallahu alayhi wasalam) “I have come to perfect the Noble Character”. The perfection of the Islamic character comes through understanding and adherence to the Book of Allah as mentioned by Aisha (radiallahu anha) the wife of the Prophet (sallahu alayhi wasalam) “His (the Prophet’s) manners were the Qur’an. This is accomplished through our Islamic studies, Tafsir, Seerah and Fiqh course and extraction of key details from the Qur’an and Sunnah for study. Alongside the study of Arabic and
memorisation of the Qur’an itself, students are given a deeper and relevant understanding of the legacy that has been left behind and the lofty example that they have to follow.

“Indeed (In the Prophet) you have been given an Excellent example” Quran Surah Al Ahzab (33:21)…

 

“…indeed (in the Prophet) you have an Excellent example” [Quran, 33:21].
