written in Arabic.

SOM Prospectus 2020-2021 5

Admission Procedures and Policy:

1. Everyone must submit the SOM online admission application form

2. The office will send an acknowledgement email/message to the applicant with detailed instructions.
3. The SOM teachers will interview the applicant to assess their suitability for the chosen level and course.
4. Teachers may ask versatile questions to understand the applicant’s learning attitudes, abilities and family
backgrounds to determine the ways SOM may give utmost personal care to each pupil.
5. Teachers and admission team will decide whether a place can be offered to a particular child for a particular level or
course.
6. SOM, under no circumstances, is obliged to provide the parents with the reasons behind their decision.
7. If parents are not satisfied with the decision, they can make an appeal to the Principal or the Chairman of the
Governing Body via a prescribed form.
8. Once a place is offered to an applicant, a deadline will be given to parents to confirm the acceptance of the offer by
paying the advised fees and signing an acceptance contract.
9. Applicants will be admitted to a class or course for at least one year or other full duration of the course.
10. If for any reasons SOM needs to withdraw the course or class, refunds will be made for uncompleted duration, but an
admissions fee may be applied.
11. If an applicant needs to withdraw from a class or course, no refunds will be made unless there is a reasonable
replacement for the vacant seat.
12. Applicants must follow the deadlines for application, acceptance, and payments. Failure to do so may result in the
offer being retracted.
13. Each applicant will have to meet all academic and behavioural standards of SOM in order for them to transit to the
successive year and parents have to confirm their continuation in writing, and by paying the required tuition and
admission fees.
14. Siblings will have a preference in admission consideration subject to the positive track records of the existing sibling/s
at SOM. A sibling is defined as a brother or sister, half brother or sister, step-brother or sister or adopted brother or
sister whose main residence is at the same address. This criterion will apply to applicants with a sibling living at the
same address who is already on roll of the SOM.

Assignments and Homework Policy

It is a well-established fact that simply providing lessons for students is not enough. Students learn in a variety of ways and thus it is
crucial that a range of other activities are offered to aid learning. With this in mind, students will have the opportunity to complete
extra work in the form of assignments, group tasks, homework etc. All work will be marked, and students will receive feedback
signposting them towards how to improve further.

Behaviour Policy

The expectations at SOM are designed to focus on positive action rather than what a student should not do. The expectations
are agreed actions so that there is consistency and fairness in all areas of school life.

However, we recognise that all students may have specific needs. Therefore, within this consistent approach is an element of
flexibility to address the needs of specific children. SOM promises to:

1. Treat all students consistently and fairly.

2. Support will be made available to aid students’ learning and behavioural needs.
3. Students will be encouraged to make positive choices.
4. All students will be given the chance of a new start throughout the day and every day.
5. All successes will be celebrated.
6. High expectations will consistently be maintained, supported, and promoted.
7. Students will always be listened to.

Exclusion Policy:

Whilst it is never the intention to exclude students, we recognise that at times, it may be in the best interest of all parties
involved to remove the student from the course. This decision will not be taken lightly and will only be made after thorough
conversations with students and parents alike.

SOM Prospectus 2020-2021 6

Reasons for exclusion may include:

1. Serious breach of the school’s rules or policies

2. Serious risk of harm to the education or welfare of the students.
3. Any exclusion will be at the decision of the Head of School, usually in consultation with other members of the senior
leadership team and parent/guardians.

The decision to exclude

If the Head of School decides to exclude a student, he/she will:

• ensure that there is sufficient recorded evidence to support the decision

• contact the parents, explain the decision and ask that the student is collected
• send a letter to the parents confirming the reasons for the exclusion
• the length of the exclusion and any terms or conditions agreed for the pupil’s return

Attendance and punctuality policy

Safeer Online Madrasah is committed to providing an education of the highest quality for all its students and recognises this
can only be achieved by promoting excellent attendance. This is based on the belief that only by attending lessons regularly
and punctually will students be able to take full advantage of the opportunities available to them.

Attendance Policy for teachers:

Teachers will be in the classroom at least 15 minutes prior to the designated lesson time and must remain for another 5
minutes after the lesson finishes.

If any teachers are absent for a reason, SOM will arrange for a cover teacher and parents and students should be notified in
due time.

If a cover teacher cannot be arranged for any reason, a rescheduled class will be arranged, and students and parents will be
notified of the details of the rescheduled class.

Attendance Policy for students:

• All students are expected to attend all lessons.
• Students should aim to be present 5 minutes before the lesson begins.
• Any student who arrives to the lesson after 5 minutes will be marked as ‘late’.
• A persistent late attender will be dealt with after lesson detention or attending extended sessions. An extra
fee may be applied to cater for the exclusive lessons.
• Our attendance target is 100%. However, if the attendance falls below 95% in any two consecutive weeks,
students will have to go through our internal attendance improvements measures, which involves phone calls
to parents, one-to-one online meetings with parents and even penalties if it is proven to be deliberate
unauthorised absence.
• Excellent attendance will be rewarded by certificates, rewards, media coverage, and prizes.

Fees Policy:
1. All fees must be paid in advance.
2. Fees can be paid in two instalments should there be any genuine reasons.
3. No sibling discounts can be offered.
4. No refunds are available (If for any reasons SOM needs to withdraw the course or class, refunds will be made for
uncompleted duration, but an admissions fee may be applied. If an applicant needs to withdraw from a class or
course, no refunds will be made unless there is a reasonable replacement for the vacant seat)
5. Late payments will incur a 20% penalty charge
6. The fees for programmes are set out in the Prospectus, and SOM reserves the right to change this when required.
7. Payments can be made only when a place at SOM is offered to an applicant.
8. All fees, refunds, and credit notes are quoted and will be calculated in GB pounds sterling. Any international exchange
rate calculation or fluctuations will follow established procedures in the currency markets.

backgrounds of the pupils.

SOM Prospectus 2020-2021 7

non-refundable deposit to be paid in order to secure a place when accepting an offer.
11. Any deposit made in advance will be taken as part of the overall course fee, and not as an additional amount.
12. Tuition fees are charged annually at the rate set for each programme for the appropriate mode of study.

immediately for advice and support.
17. SOM may introduce ‘Financial Support Scheme’ (FSS) for genuinely needy families, subject to availability of the funds.
18. As a non-profitable institute, SOM can receive donations, Zakat and Sadaqah money from any individuals.
