Johannesburg Muslim School is a partly private school situated in Fordsburg, Johannesburg, South Africa. The school combines secular and Islamic education in its curriculum and has a separate preschool located in Mayfair that caters for Nursery, Intermediate and Grade R pupils. The main school section, located in Fordsburg, caters for grades 1-12. This school has two compuses the first on 25 Bree Street Fordsburg and the second on 45 Bree Street Fordsburg. The Mission Statement of the school is "to provide young children with the holistic concept of knowledge with the holy Quran and the Sunnah as the source of guidance". The core ideology adopted is "Every child in Jannah". JMS is run by the Johannesburg Muslim School Association (Incorporated under Section 21 of the Companies Act, 1973, South Africa). The members of the association administer the school on a voluntary basis. Being a Section 21 company, the association is incorporated as total profit. All funding received as fees from learners is used entire for the objectives of the school, including the payment of salaries to educators as well as to fill the pocket. Johannesburg Muslim School is ranked in the Top 100 schools〔(University of the Witwatersrand )〕 in the Gauteng province as is rated in the top 5 feeder schools from previously disadvantaged communities by the University of the Witwatersrand. == History == Plans for a Muslim school in the Johannesburg area were conceived during 1989.〔Introducing the Johannesburg Muslim School, 19 January 2010 handout, Johannesburg Muslim School.〕 The Johannesburg Muslim School had its humble beginnings in January 1990. From its premises on 10th Avenue, Mayfair, Johannesburg, the Johannesburg Muslim School (JMS) began with 115 learners. Tuition was first offered from Class 1 to Standard 2 (Grades 1 to 4). The Board of Management had resolved that the establishment of the school will take place in several stages. In 1991, tuition was extended to standard 3 (Grade 5) level and a pre-school with nursery classes was also introduced. The student enrolment increased to 189 in 1991. Tuition was subsequently offered at higher levels over the years that followed. As of 1997, the school offers classes from Nursery up to Matric (Grade 12) and the student enrollment in 2010 was 1200 students. The school outgrew its premises on 10th Avenue, Mayfair, and in 1992 moved to the old Bree Street School complex in Fordsburg. This complex was completely revamped to provide students with better facilities. Again, as a result of natural growth, the premises at the Bree Street School complex became inadequate. JMS then leased the old Johannesburg Secondary School premises in Fordsburg from the Department of Public Works. A new school complex is planned in nearby Crosby, Johannesburg. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Johannesburg Muslim School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
