Moktob/ Quranic school
Mostly, in every mosque of Bangladesh, the Imam [prayer leader] teaches the young children of the village to read Quran and the methods of saying prayer.
This can be called as a pre-primary education base for the Muslim children. At the very tender age when they are introduced with book and slates. Arabic is the first language they are learning to read and write.
This has been a tradition of free education running for generations.
When the dawn breaks, the children wake up and come to mosque with their Arabic book; sit together and read loud in rhythmic chorus.
In some areas, the Imam gets small amount of salary from the collective sums by the villagers, while Islamic Foundtion provides support to them in some mosques. In some mosques planned curriculumm are implemented with extra care including Bangla, Mathematics.
Mosques posses a wide spread network in the social structure of Bangladesh, hence could be a effective administrative outlet for reaching out those countryside dwellers who have never reached school.
