Giving the best education to a child is every parent’s aspiration. In Islam, children are regarded as a bounty, a gift and a trust from Allah,to be educated and guided as well as possible. Nevertheless, recently there have been issues on parents’ dissatisfaction over the public sector schools’ system owing to increased social problems and negative behaviors among students such as involvement in drugs, premarital sex and bullying. Alternately, homeschooling system is created as an alternative to the public school setting. This research was conducted at Homeschooling of the Mutiara Ummah Community in Sidoarjo through qualitative method and using case study approach. Data were collected using observation, documentation, and in-depth interviews. Data were then analyzed in three stages, namely data reduction, display and conclusion. The research subjects include homeschooling manager, headmaster, tutors, students and parents. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the effectiveness of homeschooling in instilling Islamic values to the children. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the curriculum design of homeschooling in Mutiara Ummah Community is effective to cultivate and instill Islamic values for children. The curriculum is designed independently which contains Islamic values (faith, worship, and relationship), Quran memorization, knowledge and skills, as well as community program. The desired outcomes of homeschooling are the cultivation of superior Muslim personalities as well as gaining personal skills in accordance with certain area of expertise.
