| Summary: | Islamic private preschools have been gaining popularity in Malaysia over the past years. The increasing number of
Islamic private preschools indicate that the demand from parents is high. Moreover, some parents even look for branded
Islamic preschool for their children. This study was conducted to investigate parents’ perception of the branded Islamic
private preschool and what do they expect from their children’s learning experiences in the chosen preschools. The
participants of this study consist of six parents from three selected Islamic preschools. In depth semi structured
interviews had been employed by the researchers to collect the data. Based on the findings, parents perceive that Islamic
preschools have a significant role as an early educational centre to inculcate Islamic teachings for their children. The
study also found that parents expect the well-being of their children spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally
through their learning experiences in the chosen preschools. |
