Recent developments:

  1. Hifz & Tajweed classes have a maximum student to teacher ratio of 10:1 to ensure quality of memorisation and recitation.
  2. 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.
  3. Maximum student to teacher ratio in the Alimi section is 15:1
  4. Exams for the Hifz section take place fortnightly, and exams for the Alimi section take place monthly. Results of both are reported to parents.
  5. 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.
