Recent developments:
- Hifz & Tajweed classes have a maximum student to teacher ratio of 10:1 to ensure quality of memorisation and recitation.
- Students gain entry to the Hifz section only after passing through a separate Tajweed class. Students spend anything between 3 months to 1 year in this class, perfecting their Tajweed (correct recitation and pronunciation of the Quran), before gaining entry to the Hifz section.
- Maximum student to teacher ratio in the Alimi section is 15:1
- Exams for the Hifz section take place fortnightly, and exams for the Alimi section take place monthly. Results of both are reported to parents.
- Selected students who excel in their GCSEs are given the option to take some A-levels provided there is sufficient assurety that the students will not compromise on their Hifz or Alimi studies.
