In order to make class rooms lively and successful, different types of learners – Auditory, Visual and Kinesthetic- are to be made a part of the class room activity through Differentiated Instruction. Formulation of curriculum and method of instruction should be learner-centered. Effective learning strategies are to be formulated to achieve the objectives of teaching.

Teachers are to be role models in keeping up the spirit of Islam and should lead from the fore in every walk of life. They should be able to inspire the children and help them develop their creative talents.

They should be adept in spotting undesirable qualities in children like kleptomania, insincerity, timidity, laziness, carelessness etc.. They are to be well-versed in handling such situations with maturity.

Children, by nature, demand affection, security, recognition, freedom and victory. Negligence of their needs will make them psychologically fragile. Their healthy mind can be ensured only by fulfilling their natural demands.

Value oriented teaching can only create a healthy and effective generation. Recitation of Quran and its keeping by heart, traditions of prophet, routine prayers and rituals, manners and etiquettes are to be introduced to the children in a more child-friendly way so that they absorb them in a natural way. Different possibilities are to be explored including Montessori Method, Micro-teaching, Team teaching and the broad highway of Information Technology.

Above all, a child needs the constant care and attention of their parents in their education. This project envisages that a child achieves knowledge of Arabic Alphabet along with 20 sura:s from Quran and some essential routine prayers from the first year itself. He successfully learns in the first year subjects like Maths, English and Malayalam taught at IPS-I level. In the second year, apart from learning IPS-II subjects, he learns to recite the Holly Qur’an and some more prayers.
