Curriculum reviewed & published
This criterion assesses whether the organization maintains a high-quality, documented curriculum that undergoes a rigorous, evidence-based review cycle and is responsibly published. It distinguishes between a 'Public Curriculum Pack' (outlines, intent, safeguarding) for transparency and an 'Internal Full Pack' (resources, schemes) for delivery. The process integrates strict accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2 AA), privacy-by-design (Children's Code, DPIA screening), and safeguarding compliance (DSL sign-off, Prevent, political impartiality). It anchors the process in the Islamic values of Amanah (trust in content accuracy), Tabayyun (verification of sources), and Shūrā (consultation), ensuring the curriculum continuously evolves to meet the needs of learners and the community.

Level 1: Initial/Ad-hoc
Curriculum is informal and undocumented. Educational content is delivered on an ad-hoc basis.
Level 2: Developing
Basic curriculum documentation exists but is rarely reviewed. Public materials are outdated or inaccessible.
Level 3: Established
Documented curriculum exists with internal review. Basic outlines are available, but SME input is informal and accessibility is not audited.
Level 4: Advanced
Systematic review with DSL sign-off and stakeholder feedback. 'Public Curriculum Pack' is published with an Accessibility Statement. Standards mapping is in place.
Level 5: Optimizing
Benchmark status: Data-driven continuous improvement. Rigorous external SME review with written reports. Full accessibility compliance. Open knowledge sharing benefits the wider community.

| Size | Applicability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Micro | exempt | Formal SME reports, change logs, and extensive audit trails are disproportionate for volunteer-run supplementary classes. |
| Small | partial | Scaled down to basic syllabus review and simple public outline; formal SME reports and complex audit trails are disproportionate. |
| Medium | partial | Requires regular review and public curriculum pack, but formal SME reports and extensive accessibility audits can be simplified. |
| Large | full | |
| Major | full |
