Abstract: The ZAT Framework applies an evidence-based faith-informed projections model to guide youth development through a holistic assessment and individualized educational trajectory. Rooted in Islamic morality and in accordance with international education standards, ZAT has four core components; Brain, Heart, Spirit, and Coaching, focusing on cognitive development, emotional strength, aspiration for self and society and is in constant guidance to three-tiered coaching. Beyond responsive models, ZAT Framework extrapolates the empowerment in the struggle of identity formation, mental health, career readiness, and moral compass navigation. ZAT is not just a means of early diagnosis, but an operating school which cultivates a lifelong learning attitude, critical thinking, and value-based leadership. In the process, it helps connect classic Islamic concepts with emerging best practices in education, including CASEL's SEL competencies, P21 Skills Framework, and UNESCO Four Pillars of Education. Research will now shift to the validation and adaptation of the AI-assisted coaching model for sustainable and wide-scale impact.
