Baháʼí topics may be minimized in favor of a general curriculum, often with an internationalist form, with accreditation from a variety of sources.
Prior to 1911 a private school for girls existed in Tehran which was opened by Iranian Baháʼí women.
Even though it catered to the Iranian Baháʼí community, Tarbiyat attracted children from non-Baháʼí families, as the curriculum was largely secular.
This is not meant to replace central schools but to provide spiritual education on a local basis.
