Our Curriculum & Academic Program
At Taqwa Schools, education is more than academics—it’s a way of life.
Our school culture blends rigorous learning with spiritual development, vibrant co-curricular activities, and a deep sense of community. We aim to create a nurturing environment where students flourish intellectually, morally, and spiritually.
SPIRITUALITY
Step into the heart of Taqwa Private School, where the spirit of Islam isn’t just taught – it’s lived, breathed, and cherished. Here in Agege, Lagos State, we cultivate not only bright minds but also compassionate souls deeply rooted in the beautiful tenets of our faith. From the moment our students enter our doors, they embark on a journey of spiritual growth, guided by the unwavering pillars of Islam.
Imagine the serene rhythm of daily life at Taqwa, where the call to prayer, the Adhan, echoes through our halls, a gentle reminder of our connection with the Divine. Together, we stand in Salah, our obligatory prayers, finding solace and strength in unity. Beyond the prescribed prayers, our students are encouraged to embrace voluntary prayers, nurturing a personal and profound relationship with Allah.
The sacred words of the Holy Qur’an resonate deeply within our community. Our dedicated Tahfiz program provides a nurturing space for students to memorize and internalize these divine verses, carrying their wisdom in their hearts. But our engagement goes beyond recitation. Through thoughtful study and reflection, we strive for a comprehensive understanding of the Qur’an and the illuminating wisdom of the Hadith, the traditions of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
At Taqwa, spirituality extends beyond formal worship. We weave Islamic etiquettes into the fabric of daily interactions, fostering respect, kindness, and a strong sense of community. We believe that true knowledge is inseparable from good character, and we empower our students to embody the noble values taught in our faith.
The spirit of unity and leadership blossoms within our walls. Our dedicated Imams guide our prayers, and we take pride in nurturing future leaders through our Junior Imam program. Witnessing our senior students confidently lead prayers and address their peers cultivates invaluable skills and deepens their connection to their faith.
At Taqwa Private School, we believe that a truly enriching education nourishes not just the intellect but also the soul. We invite you to explore our website and discover how we create a spiritual home where young hearts grow in faith, knowledge, and character, ready to illuminate the world with their light
