We are thrilled to introduce the Foundation Level Curriculum, specifically designed to nurture and inspire our precious six-year-olds. This curriculum is crafted to impact young learning minds, focusing on developing good character and a strong understanding of their identity and role as young Muslims. At the heart of our curriculum is a hands-on approach to learning. With a variety of activities and diverse learning styles, we make education fun, engaging, and inspiring.
