Established under the umbrella of the Makeni Islamic Society Trust (MIST), our schools are dedicated to providing quality education that blends academic excellence with strong Islamic values. For decades, MIST has been a center of learning and growth for children from diverse backgrounds, particularly those from underprivileged communities, with over 90% of students supported through bursaries.
At MIST Primary and Secondary, we are committed to shaping future leaders who excel both in knowledge (Ilm) and in faith (Deen), preparing them to contribute positively to society.
Building Foundations in Knowledge, Character, and Faith
The Primary School serves as the foundation for academic success and moral development. With a curriculum aligned to the Zambian National Curriculum, enriched by Islamic Studies, Qur’an recitation, and Arabic language, our program develops curiosity, confidence, and discipline in young learners.
From Grade 1 to Grade 4, boys and girls learn together, fostering collaboration and mutual respect. From Grade 5 onwards, students are taught separately to ensure focused and value-driven learning.
Our goal is to prepare children not just for academic excellence, but for life — as confident, caring, and capable learners rooted in faith.
MIST Secondary provides a holistic education that empowers learners with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to succeed in today’s world while remaining grounded in Islamic identity.
Students follow the Zambian ECZ Curriculum, preparing them for national examinations and instilling a strong sense of identity, responsibility, and social awareness.
We emphasize academic rigor through sciences, humanities, and technical subjects while ensuring moral development through Islamic Studies and mentorship. Students are guided towards tertiary education, vocational training, or leadership roles in society.
At MIST Secondary, we nurture future leaders who are academically competent, morally upright, and spiritually strong, ready to serve their communities and the wider world.
✨ MIST Primary and Secondary Schools remain a beacon of hope for children from surrounding communities, empowering the next generation through education, faith, and service.
