Vision

Our Vision is to provide tools and strategies for the empowerment of the madrasahs to become centres of excellence in teaching and tarbiyyah.

What we do

Representing Madrasahs:

One of the core roles AMSS plays is to represent the interest Muslim schools within the education sphere including the Department for Education and other statutory bodies. An important aspect of this role involves participation in consultation forums on policy changes and the dissemination of information to our members. AMSS also makes written submission where appropriate to consultations on education policy changes, particularly those that impact on Muslim supplementary schools and Islamic education.

Training & Development workshops:

AMSS provides a range of training and workshops (INSET) for teaching and non-teaching staff throughout the year at subsidised rates for its members. Training is largely delivered on a regional basis (South, Midlands and northern Hub) which takes account of, and reflects the particular needs of the collective of supplementary schools. Training themes are aimed at improving teaching and learning, improving leadership, meeting newly introduced regulatory and other operational requirements. Training events provide important opportunities for our family of schools to share effective strategies and best practice.

Regional Training Days (INSET):

In addition to the workshops, regional training days are arranged in the South, Midlands and Northern hub where a wide range of training sessions are arranged on the same day for teachers and leaders. This also provides an important networking opportunity for staff from different supplementary schools.

AMS UK National School Leadership Conference:

With the view to enhancing leadership capacity, this annual event focuses on leadership development within Muslim supplementary schools and provides a vital platform for school leaders to network and share best practice. Attendees at this event include madrasah managers, trustees and where applicable governors.
