Shakhsiyah Education is a unique approach built on a neo-Ghazalian philosophy of education designed to provide a complete holistic education for Muslim children aged 3-14 years.

Shakhsiyah Education uses Prophetic pedagogy, Islam-infused curriculum and personalised tarbiyah, t’alim, ta’dib to develop the unique character of each child.

Our innovative model, which is becoming widely recognised across the world, has been developed over 22 years of research driven reflective practice in Shakhsiyah Schools in the UK.

This practical development has been supported through ongoing research by Dr Farah Ahmed at the University of Cambridge.

We can offer you a range of support for your school, educational project or your own professional development.

Testimonials

Why should you choose Shakhsiyah?

As a new school in search of support to renew Islamic schooling, we found a partner in Shakhsiyah Education Consultancy. Their team worked with us to train teachers, provide curricular units, and a great deal of guidance and support. We were struggling to gain our footing on this new journey and the Shakhsiyah team spent months helping us in whatever capacity we needed. With guidance and resources, we were able to design our classrooms and our units in a way that allowed us to provide our students with learning from an Islamic worldview that nurtured their fitrah. The depth of research and experience that Shakhsiyah brings is incomparable to anything else we could find, may Allah ta’ala reward them and continue to grant them tawfeeq.
