Khalifah International Secondary School (Formerly Khalifah Model School (Secondary)) is an integrated Islamic school that integrates Revealed Knowledge and Scientific Knowledge i.e. Syariatullah and Sunnatullah. We adopt the Cambridge system whereby International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) is the school exit point.
Mission
To shape students towards excellence by helping them develop their taqwa (so they are inclined to choose good and refrain from wrong), and motivation to learn.
Shared Values
- Taqwa
- Perfect self, society and physical world
- Enjoin right, Forbid Wrong
- Beautiful Words and Wisdom
At Khalifah School, we want students to excel not just academically but also as khalifahs of Allah. |
To achieve this goal, the school organises various programmes and modules that foster volunteerism, philanthropy, environmental awareness, and practical skills through hands-on learning.
The school as a whole (institution, curriculum and pedagogy) is run in accordance with the Khalifah Method which was founded by Prof Muhammad al’Mahdi Jenkins. It consists of three pillars:
- Continual reminders about our role as Khalifah Allah.
- Acknowledgement and encouragement of positive behaviours through external rewards as well as through inner speech (self-reward).
- Addressing misbehaviours with kind discipline.
Khalifah School emphasises positive reinforcement and minimises the use of negative disciplinary measures. The school avoids harsh practices such as abusive language,humiliating remarks, and corporal punishment.
Guided by the Khalifah Method, the school adopts a “kind and firm” approach by being gentle in our interactions while remaining firm in upholding principles and decisions.
