About international schools in Doha, Qatar
Islamic international schools in Doha typically combine a recognised international curriculum with formal Islamic studies and extra Arabic-language lessons to meet Qatar’s private-school requirements; this hybrid model aims to deliver global qualifications while preserving Islamic and local content. Common curricula on offer include British (IGCSE/A-Level), IB and American pathways, and some community schools follow curricula from the Indian subcontinent; English is usually the main language of instruction while Arabic and Islamic studies are mandatory under Ministry policy. Annual tuition varies widely across the city - from lower-cost community options to many international campuses charging tens of thousands of QAR a year, with the highest secondary fees reaching above QAR 50,000 at some schools - so check each school’s approved fee schedule. Admissions follow Doha’s school calendar, with the main intake for the academic year in late August or September and occasional mid-year places in January; established schools commonly operate waiting lists, so apply early and confirm the school’s Ministry-approved fees and licencing status before committing.
