” If I could give a zero I would. This school is misogynistic, lacking in education, and treats the high schoolers as though they are the teachers. The “school coordinator” is basically a teenager who works at this school straight out of highschool without a university degree. The education is very poor and slow with minimal teaching. The high school boys can go to the nearby Tim Hortons whenever they want, even in the middle of class. Hardly any school supplies were provided in the school. Don’t send your kids here, they will return home vaping and swearing with no respect. “
” Before I begin, I just want to say that I don’t mean to offend the school. I’m only sharing my opinion. Let’s start with the school’s Quran classes. They offer both Hifz and Nazira classes. The classes are taught by experienced teachers who have worked in different places before coming to Amanah. The classes have their good and bad points, but most schools have ups and downs. The Hifz teacher is very good. I’ve studied with him, and my previous teachers have said good things about him too. Next, let’s talk about the education. I’ve been here for two years. One thing I’ve noticed is that it’s hard to adapt to different teachers. Sometimes, a teacher’s way of explaining things might not be easy to understand. But you have to remember, this happens in universities too. Teachers teach in a way that they are comfortable with, and that won’t change. Another thing students often complain about is how teachers treat some students. First impressions are important, and if you make a small mistake, some people might not like you because of it. I’m not saying this is okay, because I’ve experienced it myself. Boys and girls are always separated and have little to no contact. One issue is that some students make friends with the wrong people, and it can get to a point where even the teachers can’t handle them. These teachers earn much less than TDSB teachers, yet they stay and try their best to help the students. If a teacher is paid very little for their hard work, it’s understandable why they might struggle with students who don’t listen or try to improve. For high school, it’s not a great idea to stay here past grade 10. This school isn’t the best for getting into a top university. It’s possible to go to university from here, but getting into a really good one is very difficult. Majority of the students agree with me. If you were to ask me how good this school ACTUALLY is, the stars I gave speak for themselves. “
” I was forced to come to this school back in 2021 when I was in grade 9. The second I stepped a foot in the building, the place just didn’t look close to an actual school. The elementry students were so imature and disrespectful especially to the teachers and students way older then them, they basically acted liked they owned the place. The school was also soft and never suspended or expelled anyone which did affect me since the elementry students straight up acted like wild animals and never listened to teachers, made fun of them, and also bullied the students twice there age. I also remember one guy who was 18 and completed hifz came to Amanah. At first I thought he would come out to be a well mannered and humble guy, but he came out to be a 6 year old trapped inside of an 18 year old grown man and he would beat little kids and bother my classmates and targeted me the most and even the teachers straight up just wanted him gone, but again the owner never did anything so he stayed the entire year ruining everyones school year (mines the most) and got expelled when he slamed the door on the owners face leaving me to hate the school even more for not doing anything about him when he first started causing trouble. To sum everything up, I entered grade 11 after summer ended, but the school planed everything last minute meaning that the first day of every school year is when they order text books and organize everything. Literly me and some other guy ( By the way there were no grade 12 students and there was like 2 students in grade 11 which was me and another student) had to help the teachers help set up chairs and desks and distribute text books on our first day which is kind of absurd since I am trying to take my education seriously and having to waste a whole day is not a great start to my grade 11 year. Later the owner of the school told my parents that 2 student in a whole grade were not going to be enough to pay the teachers they were hiring so he decided to tell my parents that they will shut down grade 11 really late which led me to me to switch schools and causing me to fall behind. Later, I requested for my transcript and took him 3 days to send it and when he did, he somehow messed it up so I had to visit the school a second time and asked him to fix my transcript which wasted more of my time and now I am a whole month behind. Cant believe I spent 2 years in this school and wasting about $9000 and this is what they had to offer. If you read this review all the way, my advise is to never even think of going to this school. Edit: Someone removed my review so I am re posting this. This review not going anywhere “
” As a parent of a child who goes to this school, my experience has been nothing short of delightful. A well established Islamic school with great facilities. Besides the desired Islamic environment and upbringing, the school focuses on the holistic development of students. They have a robust education system with a strong curriculum and do not slack in the extracurricular activities either. On top of this, the management is always available and open to feedback. “
