Why Al Andalus Iyahia

OUR APPROACH

Integrated and Holistic

We believe that, as Sayyidina Ali ibn Abi Talib once said, “knowledge is a single point” and we strive to relate all knowledge back to Allah. At Revival | Ihya School, we offer an integrated and holistic education that cultivates independent learners, confident leaders, and morally upright human beings who contribute to the community and the society at large.

Wholesome Environment

We provide a wholesome and natural environment where children thrive in their Muslim identity, establishing healthy relationships and a life-long love of learning.

Text-Based, Not Text-Books

We take education seriously. We focus on quality, not quantity. We only use great living books-not dumbed down material without substance. We serve as ‘guides, philosophers, and friends,’ guiding our students to make connections for themselves and take ownership over their education. We utilize time-tested traditional methods of teaching- not new age ‘modern’ educational methods which are complicated, inaccessible, and ineffective. We do not aim for average performance; we aim for students to reach their human potential. We assess students based on the progression of their knowledge, skills, and capabilities, not on arbitrary methods like grading, testing, and homework.
