Wellbeing and Support

How students are nurtured, understood, and kept safe

Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)

Deenway integrates the British National Curriculum with Islamiyaat to shape students holistically for life and work. Islamic values guide personal development with core values including the Quran and Sunnah as a guide, integrity, humility, compassion, patience, and justice for all. Embracing diversity, collaboration, discipline and hard work is encouraged, and parent participation and service to the community are promoted. Character development is central; character before education guides the school's approach. Extracurricular activities and clubs such as wildlife, debate, agriculture, photography and art support social development and teamwork. Graduates master the Holy Qur'an and the three Rs, inclusive of the three Cs: creativity, communication and collaboration, and demonstrate digital literacy and civic responsibility.

Mental Wellbeing

Sports promote physical and mental strength at Deenway. The school provides a warm, caring and loving atmosphere to support student wellbeing. The pastoral function is led by a designated pastoral assistant principal (Mudiir) who oversees pastoral care. Daily Qur'an lessons and morning prayers support spiritual wellbeing. The integrated Islamic and British curriculum aims to nurture akhalq and develop the ummah with strong Islamic values. Extracurricular activities and clubs further support social and emotional development.

Safeguarding

The Complaints Procedure Policy provides a safe environment and a formal process for addressing concerns, including informal discussion, escalation to the Principal, written complaints to the Board, and a panel hearing with confidentiality. The Child Protection Policy stresses the school's commitment to safeguarding, appoints a Child Protection Officer (DCPO) and a Child Protection Committee to implement the policy, train staff, and liaise with authorities. The policy covers all Deenway School personnel and settings, including provisions for those with special needs, and requires training and record-keeping to protect children. The CPC and DCPO responsibilities include implementing safeguarding, providing child protection education, and coordinating with external agencies as needed. Safeguarding procedures are aligned with relevant Kenyan and international frameworks and are reviewed/updated regularly. The policy also outlines reporting procedures for suspected abuse or neglect and ensures confidentiality and appropriate referrals.
