The Kindergarten level

The Kindergarten level is divided into two stages over two years, Sky 1 and Sky 2, following the Heavens Preschool curriculum. This curriculum incorporates modern educational methods and nurtures children’s behavior, habits, and manners based on Islamic teachings, shaping their personality and conduct. It includes the Quran, the Arabic language, and essential Islamic practices, preparing young children for more structured learning in subsequent stages.

The Pre-primary level

The Pre-primary level is dedicated to establishing a strong foundation in essential Islamic education, covering faith, practice, and culture. Students learn to recite the Quran correctly and memorize selected chapters. This stage aims to foster self-esteem, self-respect, and dignity, encouraging students to live according to Islamic values and teachings. Additionally, they start developing foundational Arabic language skills, focusing on basic proficiency in reading and writing.

The Primary level

The Primary level builds on the foundation laid in the previous one. By the end of this level, students are expected to have an understanding of Islamic faith, practice, and culture, focusing on accurate Quranic recitation, memorization, and a basic understanding of selected chapters and verses. Their knowledge of Aqidah, Hadith, Fiqh, Islamic History, and Arabic language skills is expanded. Personal development remains a key focus, with students expected to reflect Islamic moral and ethical values in their character.
