    • Deliberate effort to link new knowledge with higher order concepts in cognitive structure
    • Learning related to experiences with events or objects.
    • Affective commitment to relate new knowledge to prior learning.
  2. Rote Learning:
    • Arbitrary, verbatim, non-substantive incorporation of new knowledge into cognitive structure.
    • No effort to integrate new knowledge with existing concepts in cognitive structure.

  • Our Vision

  1. To develop IQRA Islamic Foundation School to be an inspiring, stimulating and motivating educational institution.
  2. IQRA Islamic Foundation School upholds the Islamic tradition of great respect for knowledge and an open spirit of inquiry. The rich vein of excellence in learning within the Islamic heritage is the foundation of the rigorous academic program which is intended to serve the needs of the modern world without sacrificing moral and spiritual values.
  3. Since the Islamic faith addresses the complete personality, it is IQRA Islamic Foundation School’s philosophy that students’ knowledge of the world and practice of their beliefs should be integrated into a cohesive whole.

  • Goals and Objectives:

  1. The central goal of IQRA Islamic School is the formation of Muslim character as described in the following statement:
  2. A Muslim pursues spiritual goals through all his/her worldly endeavours. His/her behaviour embodies and reflects Islamic morals and values. Pursuit of knowledge is among a Muslim’s highest priorities, and a spirit of inquiry is the prerequisite. Faith and action work together to lead a Muslim toward higher knowledge and progress, sound individual life choices, and service to society.
  3. The school seeks to develop in our students the values which define a Muslim: honesty, compassion, respect for self and others, pride in work, a commitment to justice, and acceptance of differences.
