"A lack of knowledge, misconceptions about Islam and fear of causing offence can all be barriers to being an effective teacher in a diverse school. This book aims to give non-Muslim teachers the confidence to engage meaningfully with important facets of their pupils' lives leading to a richer and more rewarding experience in the classroom. Key aspects of Islam are explored including: foundations and obligations of faith, expressions of practice, the word of God and the Prophet of God, and the role of education in Muslim communities. This is complemented with coverage of contemporary educational issues of Islam in modern Britain including Islamophobia, ethical values in Islam, extremism and the Prevent strategy. Case studies, expert voices and key definitions throughout every chapter link discussion back to the realities of the classroom. This is essential reading for new and experienced teachers in primary and secondary schools wishing to deepen their knowledge of Islam. Imran Mogra is Senior Lecturer in Religious Education and Professional Studies at Birmingham City University"--
