At the moment we have a couple of voluntary teachers who spend time with the children on fun and educational activities. These activities include Islamic and general knowledge quizzes, fund raising and competitions.
Teacher training sessions are held on a regular basis at the masjid and alongside our other UKIM branches. To supplement learning the teachers use white boards, projectors, computers and educational games. Examinations are held in these supplementary schools on annual basis. The Successful students are awarded certificates.
Speech Competitions are also organised each year in different categories including Qira’at, Na’at, Urdu speech and English speech. The comptetion is held at Neeli Masjid initially, those who perform well then compete with other branches in the north of England and finally those performing well compete with other nationally at UKIM’s Annual Conference.
Regular parent evenings not only provide updates on their children’s learning but are a vital part of the medrassa’s philosophy working with parents to ensure the best possible education for all.
Enrolment takes place in at the beginning of January, April, July and October. Children join the madrassa aged 5-6 years, older children may be accepted following a strict interview process.
