Al-Amanah College was established
in 1998. Its academic message started by opening classes from
kindergarten through to year three. The College ascended the ladder
of education through an effective policy, until it launched grade
six in the year 2001. Meanwhile, the Liverpool Campus was partly
under construction and opened the following year in 2002. Currently
the college enrols more than six hundred students with aims to
continue ascending the educational levels, by the will of Allah
the Exalted.
Qualified and certified experts
monitor the College's teaching process. Al-Amanah College is considered
to be a leading model for schools that offer a bilingual teaching
curriculum with neither exaggeration nor neglect. For this reason
the college has become the hope of parents who see through it
a bright and distinguished future for their children. They anticipate
and expect their children to form a new generation that will advance
within the future Australian community.
Teaching the Holy Qur'an
and the Arabic Language Schools
The ICPA's concern to spread
the true Islamic understandings has driven it to focus on teaching
the rising generations. Four Saturday schools have been established
to teach the Holy Qur'an and the Arabic Language in the areas
of Guildford, Bankstown, Canterbury and Liverpool which are central
to the dense population of Muslims in Sydney. Collectively, more
than seven hundred students are enrolled in these schools which
have consequently earned the recognition and admiration of the
State's Education Officials.
In addition, there are special programs and courses free of charge
for teaching the Arabic language to people with a non-Arabic speaking
background.
Teaching
the Islamic Religion in Public Schools
From the beginning, the ICPA
has realized the importance of sound guidance necessary for the
better future of the Islamic and Arabic community. To continue
the mission of moderation inherited from the methodology of Prophet
Muhammad, the Directors at the ICPA lead the path of righteousness,
fairness and reform rather than that of extremism, corruption
and immorality.
Accordingly, they set out to teach in more than forty public schools
the elementary curriculum that has been placed and monitored by
the ICPA Islamic Board with commendations from Al-Azhar University
in Egypt.
