A collaborative effort

Our curriculum is the result of many years of hard work, led by Shaykh  Hasan Ali. It is the culmination of a collaborative effort by teachers at Safar Academy, scholars with expertise in Islam (having completed the ʿAlimiyyah or its equivalent), teachers and educators with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and people with expertise in mainstream teaching theory.  

Along with the development team mentioned below, we have had countless input, suggestions and contributions from staff and students at Safar Academy as well as from external users and other 'ulama and experts.  May Allāh reward them all abundantly. Furthermore, our publications are always trialled and tested within our academy branches. This process ensures we produce reliable, original and functional content that is relevant to the learners and teachers of today.
