Classroom Assistant

Volunteer · fī sabīlillāhGarden of Knowledge

Support our teachers in the classroom and help our children learn the Qur'an — a rewarding way to give your time fī sabīlillāh.

About the role

As a Classroom Assistant you'll support the teacher during lessons — helping children stay focused, listening to recitation, and making sure every child feels looked after.

What you'll do

  • Support the teacher during Qur'an and Islamic studies lessons
  • Listen to and encourage children's recitation
  • Help with classroom setup and keeping a calm, positive environment

Who we're looking for

  • Patience and warmth with children
  • Reliability for your committed sessions
  • A good standard of Qur'an recitation is helpful but not essential

Commitment & safeguarding

Flexible around your availability — even one session a week makes a difference. All volunteers working with children are subject to our safeguarding checks (including a DBS check) before starting.
