YOU ARE WELCOME TO FILL OUR APPLICATION VIA TWO CHANNELS: IN PERSON AND/OR ONLINE.

We prefer online applications as it allows us to review your file immediately and gives us a head start on the application process. However, we do understand that not everyone is comfortable with an electronic application. In these case, we will welcome a paper application delivered in person.

In order to have an application considered, we require the following documents:

  • Passport size photo (2)
  • Copy of Birth Certificate
  • Copy of Vaccination Certificate
  • Copy of the Child’s Passport
  • Copy of the Child’s Qatar ID
  • Copy of Parents’ Passport (both parents)
  • Copy of Parents’ Qatar ID (both parents)
  • Last two years’ school reports (If the reports are from outside Qatar, Qatari students must get an equivalency document from the Ministry of Education. As for non-Qatari students bringing reports from outside Qatar, the reports must be attested by the Embassy of the country where they studied and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs)
  • Recommendation letter from the previous school which includes attendance, behavior information, and last year group attended
  • Completed transfer letter to be provided at the end of the academic year.
  • Medical file: For Kindergarten, Reception, and Year 1 (Government Health Centre/Clinic)

Please Note:

All non-Qatari children must be in possession of a valid Qatar Residency Permit before starting school in Qatar.

  • The placement of a student in an appropriate year group for their age is the joint responsibility of the receiving school and the parent. In exceptional cases, when the child is placed in a year group, which does not match his / her age, parents must undertake to sign an agreement with the school.
  • Parents seeking a place for a child who has not previously been educated in a British curriculum school should refer to the Ministry equivalency chart to understand the appropriate year group for their son / daughter.
  • An end of year report card must be submitted by parents to finalise the registration of their child and thereafter to enter student data on the official MoE & HE registers via their official portal.
  • Parents must confirm that their child has ‘passed’ the last school year group on the MoE & HE system in order to be promoted to the next year group. In the event that a parent cannot confirm this, and at a later date a ‘fail’ status is evident, the school reserves the right to demote the child to the appropriate year group.
