Shaheen House


Harmoniously blending with the Islamic view of a child’s fitrah (nature), the ‘Montessori methodology’ adopted at ATPHS is an exceptional system. It is characterized by providing the students freedom of choice, respecting their natural development whilst promoting independent learning. ATPHS provides one of the best Montessori set-ups in Pakistan, successfully using Montessori material for hands-on learning Alhamdulillah. We believe that Montessori learning is learning for life! Therefore, our focus is to link our children with Allah in everything they do and develop a strong foundation for their entire lives. Shaheen House is a 4 year comprehensive program, which starts at the age of 2 years 6 months and may go up to 6+ years. The time since birth until the age of 6 is considered the ‘golden period’ for a child to learn, understand and grow. We use this golden period to make our students independent by giving them rich experiences to explore as well as steering them towards Islam.

Assessment

The students’ progress is closely monitored by assistant teachers, class teachers, subject teachers, level coordinators and the Section Head. Daily behavior reports help in the identification of areas of concern, whether it is academic or otherwise and aid in planning to overcome them. Remedial programs are carried out for those students who require special attention in certain academic areas. If required, problems are discussed with parents so that they can also play a positive role in helping their child cope. Report cards prepared on the basis of regular ongoing assessment are sent to the parents at the end of each term.
