The pathway

From four years old to sixteen

Children join at the stage that fits them and progress as they are ready, not by age alone.

Beyond Essential Level 3
  1. I

    Nursery

    Letters with correct makhraj from the first day, elementary duas, and the names of Allah and His Beloved ﷺ — in warmth and play.

  2. II

    Essential Level 1

    Letters turn into words, words into verses — with the fundamentals of Islam, the daily duas and the stories of the Prophets.

  3. III

    Essential Level 2

    Reading develops into recitation with tarteel. General knowledge broadens into structured aqidah, fiqh and the Sirah.

  4. IV

    Essential Level 3

    Tajwid theory applied, aqidah internalised rationally, the intricate rulings of fiqh, and their place as a Muslim in the modern world.

A word from the head teacher

“A madrasah that does not intimately understand its age will inadvertently fail the very children it exists to serve.”

What we teach is thoroughly traditional: the way of the Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamā‘ah. What we have set out to change is the delivery — the structure, the systems, and the tracking of every child’s progress.

What they learn

The curriculum

عَقِيدَة

Aqidah

The creed of the Ahl al-Sunnah, taught with its proofs — what they believe, why, and how to recognise what contradicts it.

فِقْه

Fiqh

Purification, salah, fasting and the rulings of daily life — not only that they must pray, but how and why.

تَارِيخ

Islamic history

The Sirah, the companions, and the grandeur of Islamic civilisation, carried as an inheritance.

تَصَوُّف

Tasawwuf

The science of the heart: etiquette, morals, piety and the implementation of religion in personal life.

تَفْسِير

Tafsir and hadith

In the higher classes, the meanings of the Quran and the words of the Prophet ﷺ.

تَجْوِيد

Quran with tajwid

Taught under qualified reciters, until a student can open any page and recite it correctly.

Memorisation

Surah al-Duha to Surah al-Nas as a minimum, with the Prophetic duas of daily life. Spaced repetition runs across the year and across years, with randomised tests, so earlier learning is genuinely retained.

Every child, measured fairly

A child can be near the top of the class and still be underperforming; a lower position can be an overachievement. We track attendance, age, prior results and teachers’ notes to set an individual target for each student.

How E-Maktab works

Every child is a trust

We would be honoured to be trusted with yours.
