Homework/Sabaq is given to the children daily. This includes practicing reading, memorization, recognition and written work (for secondary years). Parents must ensure their children are completing this work every day at home. We expect children to complete/learn their Madrasa work for at least 20-30 minutes a day.

Madrasa is a leading e-learning platform launched in 2018 under the umbrella of the Mohammed Bin Rashid Global Initiatives (MBRGI). The platform aims to respond to the need to develop and enrich Arabic educational content and make it accessible to the largest segment of students. It provides exceptional Arabic language educational content for all subjects like science and mathematics for free. With the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, Madrasa was able to broaden its scope of action and launched the “‘Madrasa in a Bag”, a classroom in a bag, containing Madrasa’s whole library of content and material, ready to be deployed anywhere without the need to connect to the internet. In this way, Madrasa was able to support students and education authorities around the world, reaching the leaners most at risk of being left behind and marginalized. For this reason, Madrasa was also one of the recommended online learning resources by UNESCO, ISESCO, and many education ministries in the Arab world.

There will be no madrasah for tomorrow ONLY(Monday 31 stMay) for all normal classes. We do realise that schools are off for half term and ideally we try our level best to give all holidays in line with school holidays. With the extra time given off for Ramadhan / Eid ul fitr and the extra time that will be given off for Eid ul Adha it is not feasible to give these half term holidays as well. As you are already aware the childrens` madrasah education has already suffered greatly due to Covid–19 and giving more holidays will only impact their education further.Due to an increase in the number of coronavirus cases in Bolton plus the fact that many families will have mixed together at Eid, we feel it’s best to keep Madrasah teaching online for this week. Children and Young people on the edge of receiving support from children’s social care services or in the process of being referred to Children’s Services The learning environment for children is very important to us. We want children to feel happy, secure and valued.
