Student Development Programs (SDP)

Six mandatory, non-credit programs beyond the curriculum — integrated formation of knowledge, character, and leadership.

The Concept

The Idea Behind SDP

Beyond grades and certificates, an ideal da'ee needs character, skills, and social responsibility. The SDP ensures this formation.

Each program has designated hours — spread across the year in batch-wise planning under teacher supervision.

Participation and presentation are assessed; results do not count toward the CGPA — but completion is required.
