New Delhi :

Dr Abdul Qadeer, founder and chairman of Shaheen Group of Institutions, on Friday announced a series of academic initiatives aimed at promoting inclusive, affordable, and future-oriented education for students from diverse social and economic backgrounds.

 Addressing media persons at the Delhi branch of the institution, he said the organisation remains committed to combining academic excellence with social transformation and global educational opportunities.

He formally introduced its flagship programmes covering mainstream education, professional coaching, international schooling, and overseas medical education.

Dr. Qadeer highlighted the role of education in empowering underprivileged communities and integrating students into the mainstream educational system. He said the institution’s programmes are designed to provide personalised learning, mentorship, and structured academic support to help students compete at national and international levels.

One of the major initiatives discussed during the press conference was the “Madrasa Plus” programme. The programme seeks to integrate Madrasa students into formal education through a specialised teaching model featuring a 1:6 teacher-student ratio. According to the institution, the programme has achieved nearly 80 percent success in Class X examinations. It is currently being implemented in more than 100 Madrasas in collaboration with the Government of Karnataka. Officials said the initiative has enabled thousands of students to continue their education within the mainstream system while preserving their religious and cultural identity.

The institution also introduced its “5-Year Integrated Graduation Programme”, which combines higher secondary education with undergraduate studies and Islamic learning. Under the programme, students can pursue undergraduate courses such as BA, BCom, and BCA alongside Alimiyath studies. The programme also includes Hifz support, structured residential facilities, and personalised mentoring aimed at ensuring balanced academic and personal development.

Another major academic initiative announced was the “Pre Plus Two”, a three-year pre-NEET and JEE foundation programme designed for students who have either passed or failed Class X examinations. The programme begins with an Academic Intensive Care Unit (AICU), which focuses on strengthening students’ fundamentals in Mathematics, Science, and Languages through personalised instruction. This is followed by a comprehensive NCERT-based curriculum integrated with NEET and JEE coaching, continuous testing, and mentoring support.

Dr. Qadeer said the programme is intended to help students rebuild confidence and prepare systematically for competitive examinations. He added that many students from disadvantaged educational backgrounds often require individual attention and conceptual clarity, which the programme seeks to provide.

The institution also highlighted its “MBBS Abroad Programme”, aimed at students aspiring to pursue medical education overseas at affordable costs. Under the programme, students can study medicine in countries such as Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan at an estimated cost of around Rs 28.8 lakh. The institution stated that the programme provides hostel accommodation, food, hospital facilities within the same campus, separate residential arrangements for boys and girls, and complete academic guidance to ensure a secure and supportive environment for students studying abroad.

Another key announcement was related to the Shaheen Australian International School, which offers education through the globally recognised WACE curriculum. The school focuses on inquiry-based learning, critical thinking, and student-centric teaching methods. According to the institution, the school aims to prepare students for international academic and professional opportunities through globally aligned educational practices and value-based learning.

Dr. Qadeer also spoke about the expansion of the institution in the national capital through Shaheen Academy Delhi. He said the Delhi centre will focus particularly on NEET preparation and will follow Shaheen’s established academic model based on discipline, conceptual understanding, and continuous mentorship.

He added that the academy aims to support students from diverse backgrounds and provide them with structured guidance, holistic development, and opportunities to excel in competitive examinations. The expansion, he said, is part of the institution’s broader mission to make quality education accessible across different parts of the country.

The press conference concluded with an interaction between the management and media representatives, during which officials reiterated the institution’s commitment to educational inclusion, skill development, and creating opportunities for socially and economically marginalised students.

12 NEET toppers from Shaheen Group will go for medical education, says chairman

Bidar, KARNATAKA :

Bengaluru:

Dr. Abdul Qadeer, chairman of the Shaheen Group of Institutions, Bidar, has expressed pride in the excellent performance of the Hifzul Quran course students at the Shaheen College in the NEET 2022.

Dr. Abdul Qadeer said that 12 students who had completed the Hifzul Quran Plus course at the Madrasa have gotten ranks in NEET and expect to be selected for the MBBS course in government medical colleges.

He was addressing a press meet at the Darussalam Hall of the Bangalore Islamic Foundation Trust, Queen’s Road, on Tuesday.

“The ‘Academic Intensive Care Unit (AICU)’ of the Shaheen Group provides a three-month foundation course of Mathematics and Language for students who have completed the Hifzul course through Madrasa education, without attending school, and for school dropouts. After this, a one-month bridge course is conducted in Science for the students to get admitted to Class 10. Next comes a year-long education with state syllabus or NIOC syllabus for the Madrasa-educated students to answer the Class 10 examinations. The intermediate course for two years, after this, prepares students for examinations like JEE, UPSC and NEET,” said the chairman.

He added that the Shaheen Group has been working for 12 years at getting Madrasa-educated students into the education mainstream. “With a view to ensure that all gates of education and career, including IAS, IPS, MBBS and Engineering, are opened for the Madrasa students and not restrict them to the religious field, we have started 35 AICU centres all over India. For the benefit of the Hafiz near Bengaluru, an AICU was started last year in Bannikuppe. More such centres will be opened at Darul Umar in Srirangapatna and Kanakapura. The Hafizes who have scored more than 350 marks in the NEET 2022 will be trained for free in our 12 residential complexes.”

Dr. Qadeer also said that, of the 1,800 Shaheen Group students who answered NEET this year, 450 students are expected to get free medical education seats, adding, “Of the government seats, students of our institutions expect to get 14 per cent.”

Hafiz Muhammad Ali Iqbal, who scored 680 in NEET, said that the four-year-long Hifzul course had helped him a lot. “I had quit my schooling to become a Hafiz. Studying with the Shaheen Group helped me score 68 in SSLC and 96 per cent in PU examinations,” he said and stated that he wished to become a doctor.

Jamia Ulum Shaheen Hifz Plus Academy director Syed Tanveer Ahmed, Falcon Shaheen Education Institutions director Abdul Subhan and the Madrasa students who had topped NEET were among those who attended the press meet.
