CIS offers 2 hours of classroom learning each week, reinforced by our custom online learning platform including videos, guided discussions, assigned readings, quizzes and a structured independent-study routine that trains students to think, analyse, and grow steadily in their understanding of Deen. Parents can also access announcements and see what their children are learning through our learning platform.

Our education philosophy integrates contemporary theory and best practices with classical texts, structured progression, memorisation + understanding, and discussion-based learning.
