Faith Associates has developed a unique toolkit which will assist Management Committees is setting up a comprehensive ‘Madrassah Management System’ in their Mosques. This toolkit will provide teaching methodologies in key areas that the Mosque leadership needs to understand fully to steer their Mosque in a manner and direction which will help to implement good teaching practices. One of the key features of this toolkit will be that Faith Associates will develop and implement a child protection training programme to safeguard and promote the welfare of children and to ensure that Management Committees have an increased understanding of their role and responsibility in safeguarding children in Mosques and Madrassahs.
The aim of the training programme is to introduce child protection/safeguarding issues in Mosques and Madrassahs context.
