Students
The Al-Mizan student population is representative of the diversity within the Muslim community in the Bedford area. This allows students to gain an early appreciation Muslims come from all heritages and we should develop positive and lasting friendships with a wider group of people.
We desire to reflect the principles established from The Final Sermon of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and steadfastly adhere to equal opportunity for all. We aim to provide a learning environment that allows all to flourish.
Classes
Young Student Classes
Classes one to five are for students from age six to 12 years old.
Older Student Class
Here higher level Arabic classes will further develop reading and understanding skills learnt in earlier years. In higher level Islamic classes we aim to develop their knowledge of Islamic principles and ethics.
Each term we will also deliver specific Islamic lessons aimed at inspiring students to seek excellence in all that they do, especially relating to current affairs.
Assessments
We have some assessments to ensure students are learning each term, with attention to nurturing the students into confident and productive members of society. Results are shared with parents to keep them updated and encourage additional support at home to enhance the students progress during their time at Al-Mizan.
Open Communication
We advocate the importance of strong and honest partnership between the school, students and parents if our students are to attain their full potential. The Head teacher and other teachers are usually available for a short chat at home times. Additionally, further or longer meetings can be arranged with teachers or management team at a suitable time.
Recognition of Student Progress
To promote on-going academic and personal progress we acknowledge, encourage and reward students each term. Additionally, at the end of the academic year we also recognise one student for special recognition based on their academic and personal development in the year.
At the annual end of school year ceremony, all students receive a certificate of completion to recognise their attainment. Each student also receives a reward agreed in advance by the trustees.
Tuck Shop
A tuck shop is available on site for students to purchase light snacks and drinks.
