autumn newsletter - madani schools federation newsletter...autumn term issue | december 2017...

Dear Parent/ Carer,

A warm welcome to the autumn issue of our Newsletter,

which provides many highlights and updates of the term.

We started the year with an excellent array of summer

results across both schools and the curriculum, placing us as

two of the very best schools in the city and nationally for our

provision and outcomes achieved. This was soon followed in

September 2017 with an Ofsted inspection of the Girls

school.

The report letter (available in its entirety via the school

website), outlines that:

The religious character of the school enriches the

curriculum.

The school is outward looking, celebrating and

valuing a wide range of cultures.

The school environment is colourful, thought-

provoking and reinforces the importance of learning

We have reinforced the belief that learning is at the

heart of the school’s work, through the simple words

‘We’re here to learn’

Black History Month

It has been a busy term for the Faculty. The first

big event of the year came in October, which

for the past 30 years has been recognised as

Black History Month in the UK.

Madani used this opportunity to celebrate the

contributions of minority groups to British and

World History. The department was excited to

see everyone in the school involved.

Forms explored race relations and debated

questions like whether or not racial prejudice is

declining in Britain? Teachers of all subjects

played a part in BHM by highlighting the

accomplishments of significant figures in lessons.

This month was especially important in history

lessons, where students looked beyond

celebrating the achievements of key figures and

asked tough questions to explore the history

curriculum and whether or not it does enough to

recognise diversity, experiences and

contributions of minority groups.

We tackled difficult questions like who should be

responsible for creating interest in black history

and whether or not Black History Month, despite

all its positive intentions; gave us an excuse to

exclude this experience from our history lessons

for the rest of the year. The mature and

considered responses of students to these

questions were truly impressive.

Remembrance Day

An important event for the department. Mr. Afzal

had the incredible opportunity to take part in a

two day visit to France where he visited the

graves of Muslim soldiers who fought in World

War I and learned about the contribution of

Muslim soldiers from Asia and Africa during the

war. Please do ask him about this experience

and what he learned while he was there.

Geography

Finally, Year 9 students in geography have been

developing not only their knowledge of the

impacts of our energy use, but have also

become better collaborative learners and

teachers.

Students have been working on recognising

each other’s strengths, and it was fantastic to

see the support students offered each other

when they were asked to evaluate each other’s

pamphlets on the future of non-renewable

resources; and the renewable alternatives and

their plans for how to use non-renewable

resources in the future. As a teacher, the best

lessons are the ones where students support

each other’s confidence and learning in a

positive way.

50% when using a trampoline.” Whilst Abu Bakr

Short and his team concluded that “there is no

correlation and therefore the height of a person

does not affect how high they can jump.” These

were just some of the findings discovered by the

Maths Ambassadors.

It was amazing to discover students applying

their knowledge of Maths in a fun and

interactive setting. The teacher and students

thoroughly enjoyed their day at Flip Out

Trampoline Park.

Flip Out Maths Trip – 6th December 2017

15 students from the Madani Boys School had

the opportunity to go to Flip Out Trampoline Park

on an educational visit accompanied by Mr

Mohmed from the Maths department.

On the trip, the students completed a

Mathematics project based on statistics and

data collection. This trip was a fantastic

opportunity for them to immerse themselves into

the new topic they will be studying in the

coming term. The trip also allowed the students

to explore and identify ways of incorporating

Maths into real life situations.

Before attending the park, the students came up

with a hypothesis which they were going to test

at the trampoline park. This hypothesis was

based on how high they could jump. The aim

was to discover whether there is a correlation

between the height of their normal jump and

trampoline leap.

The learners worked in small teams to test their

hypothesis before discussing what they had

found. Easaa Maniyar and his team found that

their “jump height increases by approximately

Advice to students

Always re-cap/revise work prior to the lesson not just for

assessments, therby not only will you be prepared for the

lesson but also there will be less ‘cramming’ for assessments.

Programing can be daunting for some students, but the

more you practise the easier it will be to understand the

language.

Y8 boys received a talk from Zubair Moti who

works as an engineer at Jaguar Land Rover. He

was speaking primarily about the Bloodhound

Supersonic Car, which is a British attempt to build

a land vehicle capable of breaking speed

records to travel at nearly 1000mph; and the

types of engines and braking systems used to

execute such a record.

Zubair spoke about the Jaguar cars he has

worked on, STEM related careers, the

importance of Design and Technology, Science

and Maths for Engineering careers and what the

Year 8 students should expect when they visit

Jaguar and Land Rover in March 2018. Students

asked some fantastic questions, and got some

brilliant responses; students also designed

creative car parts and features!

Year 8 were set an ANNA TARATIEL inspired ART competition

in November 2017. The winner was MAHIRAH MALEEK , the

first runner up was SARA SHERZAY and the second runner up

was AAMINA MUSA. Very well done indeed. Prizes included

certificates and Art related materials.

MSF were delighted to take part in charity week 2017 this year.

Nasra Abdulle from year 7 summed up charity week: ‘It was very

fun, full of different activities. It made me so happy that the money

we gave was going to help people who are less fortunate. We are

lucky to have LIA relief trust as part of our school because we

know that our money will be going to the right places.’

Uzair Gangat Yr 7 mentioned; he really enjoyed taking part in the

football tournament and was happy to know that his money

would help children who are in need.

Charity week consisted of various activities for students and staff.

‘I am so grateful that our students are given the opportunity to

learn about charity, as this will help them throughout their journeys.

Chaiiwala tea in the staff room at break time was a lovely treat.’

(Member of staff)

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those

parents who came for the tea and coffee morning during charity

week. Your support means a lot to us as a Federation.

Alhumdulillah we collectively raised a grand total of £4785.41. The

total is one of the highest ever recorded at the school!

various houses we have within the school.

The student council meet weekly to discuss issues. We have

worked very hard this term in helping with various events.

Our focus for the past few weeks has been about revising the

school lunch menu. We are looking forward to the tasting session

with the Head Chef before the end of this school term iA!

In the new term the student council will be inviting key members

of staff to discuss school issues including Mr Laher (Head teacher)

and Mr H Suleman (Chair of Governors) to look at improvements

within the school and Mr I Patel to give our ideas on teaching and

learning aspects within the school.

Standing up for what's right has never been easy, neither in the

past nor in the present.

Students at MGS were challenged with a Blactivist competition,

which encouraged them to stand up for equality in their own bold

and creative way. The girls were given a website that

acknowledged the contributions that black women have made/

continue to make to British society. They were then instructed to

make something in recognition of the female figure who inspired

them most of all.

Entries were fantastic, ranging from canvasses, draw-my-life-

videos, 3D timelines, and ample baked advocacy. These were all

showcased for the delight of the student/ staff body on 24/10/17.

In this way, MGS celebrated Black History Month in a fun and

innovative way, helping students to value the achievements British

women have made.

Well done to all the entrants, we're all proud of your advocacy!

Special thanks to Ms, Naroot who hosted the competition in the

library and acted as a judge.

We hope everyone had a chance to see the incredible work put

together by all the groups who entered when it was on display in

the reception area and that you were as impressed by the entries

as we were.

This is a time of positive change at the school!

Pupils respect the school’s core values but are not

afraid to challenge leaders if they want change.

Leaders make sure pupils are looked after well.

The great majority of pupils enjoy coming to school

and pupils’ attendance has continued to be high

and few pupils are regularly absent.

Pupils’ support for each other is striking and has a

notable impact on their learning.

Pupils behave exceptionally well and that recently,

we have reinforced very high expectations of pupils’

conduct.

We have a broad and balanced curriculum that

equips pupils well for modern British society

The excellent pastoral system equips pupils to deal

with the most common risks they face, including those

online

We have a strong commitment to safeguarding and

the public sector ‘Prevent’ duty. Leaders’ work to

prevent extremism and protect pupils from this

danger is exemplary.

We aim to build on the abovementioned recognition from

the inspectorate and strive onwards, towards the Madani

vision of world class to provide a pleasant, purposeful

learning community in which each student has the

opportunity to develop and achieve. As a result, we place

an emphasis on our school principles of Honesty, Excellence,

Accountability, Respect and Tolerance (HEART). As

mentioned by Ofsted, our maxim is ‘we’re here to learn’,

which applies to all members of the learning community; as

we work together in what we believe to be a special place.

I sincerely pray that we can work together in the coming

terms and years ahead and look forward to a successful and

happy time at Madani for your child.

Yours sincerely | Wasalam

helps young people gain more experience of the world of work and have meaningful

encounters with employers.

Mr Kasak said: "It is vital that we’re making young people from our community aware of the

opportunities available to them. "My role alongside the support of the school and board is all

about ensuring every student has the best resources available to make informed and educated

choices about their future.

"I’m delighted to be involved as I’ve been a long time champion of creating opportunities for

young people. This is a great opportunity to create a lasting legacy for Madani working closely

At Madani Schools Federation we are always looking for ways to extend students’

learning and improve the progress made by students. We have recently invested in

SAM learning, a unique online resource that all students at Madani have access to. It

covers all the main curriculum areas in Key Stages 3 and 4. There is clear evidence

through research that by regularly using SAM Learning your child will make more

progress in their learning.

SAM Learning can help your child with their homework, research work, testing their

own understanding of a topic or simply increase their knowledge in a chosen subject

area. SAM Learning is free to use and because it is online your child can access it from

home as well as from school, on tablets, phones and computers.

The service enables homework to be set and marked which means that you can

easily monitor the progress of your child. We hope that your child is able to take full

advantage of SAM Learning and thank you in advance for supporting the initiative.

instant information to support conversations at home and with school.

If you have not yet done so please contact the school reception for your child’s
