Al-Amin Darul Musthofa Integrated Islamic School, Batu Caves

Introduction

Al-Amin Darul Musthofa School (AADMS) was established in 2015 with a clear and inspiring vision: to harmonize academic excellence with Islamic values in a nurturing, forward-thinking environment. As a proud member of Pusat Pendidikan Al-Amin Berhad (PPAB), AADMS continues the Al-Amin legacy of providing high-quality, integrated education that balances intellectual growth with spiritual development.

Our main campus is strategically located in Taman Industri Bolton, Batu Caves, Selangor. This campus features a purpose-built, three-storey building with a total built-up area of 120,000 square feet. Designed to accommodate up to 400 students, the facility operates within a secure, gated environment monitored 24/7. Regular school hours are from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm. For working parents, we provide flexible extended care under adult supervision until 7:00 pm. Students may be dropped off as early as 7:00 am, ensuring convenience for families with diverse schedules.

Since our inception, AADMS has continued to grow in both size and scope. We have expanded our programs, upgraded our facilities, and refined our services with one central focus in mind: providing the best for our students. Guided by the Quran and the Sunnah, we are committed to nurturing young minds with strong moral compasses and a love for lifelong learning. We aspire to instill in each student a sense of responsibility, self-discipline, and excellence, both academically and spiritually.

Academic Framework
At AADMS, we implement a comprehensive academic package that merges Malaysia’s Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah (KSSR) with Kurikulum Sekolah Rendah Agama (KSRA). This dual-curriculum approach allows our students to thrive in both national and religious education. We emphasize mastery in core academic subjects while integrating Islamic teachings and digital competencies throughout.

Our learning model is enriched with 21st-century skills, digital tools, and personalized learning strategies. Interactive whiteboards, tablets, educational software, and other technological tools are seamlessly integrated into daily lessons, making learning more dynamic, relevant, and engaging for students.

Instructional Approach
Our pedagogical philosophy is built on several core pillars:

Dual-Language Program: English & Bahasa Melayu
English is the primary medium of instruction, ensuring students attain strong proficiency, while Bahasa Melayu remains a key language to preserve cultural identity and national unity.

Facilitated Learning Environment
Teachers at AADMS act as facilitators, guiding students through discovery-based learning, encouraging curiosity, and cultivating independent thinking.

Student-Centred Approach
Every learner is encouraged to engage actively in their educational journey. Our interactive and collaborative activities help students develop problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills.

Soft Skills Development
Project-based learning provides students with the opportunity to collaborate in teams, present ideas, and refine interpersonal skills—preparing them for real-world challenges.

Joyful and Experiential Learning
Lessons are designed to be hands-on and engaging, creating meaningful connections to the real world and sparking a love for learning.

Learning-Oriented Assessment
Continuous assessments emphasize individual progress. Feedback is personalized, constructive, and designed to help students improve and achieve mastery.

Mastery of Key Vocabulary
AADMS emphasizes the use of high-frequency academic vocabulary in Malay, Arabic, and ICT, helping students strengthen both language and subject-specific understanding.

Integration of Al-Quran and Hadith
Islamic values are seamlessly embedded into the curriculum. Lessons are often enriched with references to Quranic verses and Hadith to cultivate akhlak (character), adab (etiquette), and a deep connection to faith.

Achievements and Recognition
AADMS takes pride in its consistent performance in academic and co-curricular excellence. Our students and teachers have won numerous awards at international, national, state, and district levels, in areas such as public speaking, robotics, Quran recitation, storytelling, academic quizzes, and sports. These recognitions are not only milestones but also a testament to the hard work and dedication of our students, educators, and parents. Each award strengthens our commitment to excellence and motivates us to continue evolving as an institution of choice.

Co-Curricular Excellence
At AADMS, co-curricular activities are an integral part of the educational experience. We embed these activities into the school timetable to ensure full participation and avoid conflict with academic schedules. Activities are categorized into three areas:

Clubs and Societies
The school offers a variety of clubs and societies including Qasidah & Nasyid, Little Chef Cooking Club, Computer Club, Crime Prevention Club, BM Club, Arabic Club, Innovation (STEM) Club, Eco Warrior, SEO Club, and Performing Arts.

Games and Sports
Physical development is supported through sports such as Archery, Ping Pong, Badminton, Indoor Games, Swimming, Netball, Futsal, and Taekwondo.

Uniform Bodies
Uniformed units such as Red Crescent, and Tunas Puteri are mandatory for upper primary students (Years 4–6), promoting discipline and leadership. The number of units will expand in line with student interest and enrolment.

Students are given the freedom to choose activities that align with their interests and talents. This personalized approach boosts motivation and confidence, as learners pursue areas where they naturally excel. Participation in these activities builds character, encourages teamwork, and fosters a spirit of healthy competition and resilience.

Our balanced approach ensures students are not only academically competent but also emotionally intelligent, socially aware, and physically active—qualities essential for future success.

Community, Values, and Growth
Our school culture is rooted in values such as respect, responsibility, integrity, and empathy. We work hand in hand with parents, involving them in school events, student development programs, and feedback mechanisms. Through this strong home-school partnership, we ensure that every child is supported holistically.

Backed by visionary leadership, continuous teacher training, and forward-thinking educational strategies, AADMS remains committed to its mission: to nurture well-rounded, confident, and responsible believers who are prepared to lead and serve with integrity.
