Safe, professional environment
Join us—together we can make a difference.
We are a not-for-profit educational organisation founded and led by professionals with backgrounds in education, management and community development, united by a passion for making a meaningful and lasting impact on young people.
We believe learning Arabic is about more than acquiring a language. It is about communication, confidence, identity, values and opportunity – helping young people develop the skills and character they need to thrive in an increasingly connected world.
Our school welcomes students from all ethnic and cultural backgrounds, whether Arabic is part of their heritage or a completely new language to them.
Our mission is to provide a safe, stimulating and nurturing learning environment where children and young people can develop their Arabic language skills while growing intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically.
Through a holistic approach to education, we aim to:
Deliver high-quality, engaging and modern Arabic language education.
Instil positive Islamic values and strong character.
Promote a sense of belonging, confidence and pride in identity and heritage.
Develop the skills, confidence and sense of responsibility needed for future leadership.
Support the mental, physical, social and emotional development of every learner.
Continuously develop our curriculum, teaching team, educational resources and methods.
Build a genuine partnership between students, teachers, parents and the wider community.
Our approach combines competent teachers, modern learning methods, interactive technology and continually evolving educational resources to create an environment where students are encouraged to participate, explore and enjoy learning.
Future leaders, fluent in Arabic, proud of their identity and heritage, and positively engaged in society.
We want our students to leave us with more than language proficiency. We want them to become confident, capable and responsible young people who understand their values, appreciate different cultures and make positive contributions to the communities and societies in which they live.
Our students learn in a professional school environment at Landau Forte College, Derby, with numerous classrooms equipped with smartboards and interactive multimedia technology.
Our large team of qualified, DBS-checked native Arabic teachers and trained assistants provides structured, engaging and interactive learning for all ages and abilities – from Reception to GCSE and beyond.
We believe that excellent education is built through collaboration.
Alongside our partnership with parents and the wider community, we work with state schools and collaborate with national and international educational institutions and educational content providers. These relationships help us share expertise, access high-quality resources and continually strengthen our curriculum and teaching practices.
As a not-for-profit organisation, our focus remains firmly on our learners: investing in educational quality, developing our people and resources, and creating opportunities for every student to learn, grow and succeed.
