Our Curriculum
Learning for this life and for faith
At Al-Falah, the Kenyan education curriculum and a comprehensive Islamic education are learned together. Academic and Islamic studies run alongside one another throughout a boy’s education. Each day combines classroom lessons in the core subjects with Madrasa studies, Arabic and Qur’an memorisation, so that boys grow in knowledge, faith and good character at the same time.
A balanced education
We aim for a balance of academic learning, Qur’an memorisation, Islamic values and personal development – so that boys leave with knowledge, skills, faith and good character.
