Qatar Doha College Full time

About us:

Doha College is a high-profile, leading, not-for-profit British International School for children aged 3-18.

Its vision is to enable personal growth, instil a passion for learning, and create aspirational minds, whilst offering a well-balanced, all-embracing curriculum that follows the English National Curriculum.

It was the first High Performance Learning accredited school in the world and has consistently outstanding educational achievements and excellent examination results at all stages.

We have been established in Qatar for over 40 years under the patronage of the British Embassy.

This is an exceptional opportunity to play a part in the continual improvement of a school with an already worldwide-renowned reputation for excellence.

With 2,500 students and 350 staff, the school is a vibrant international community that subscribes to equal opportunities for all.

We recently moved to a brand-new, 90,000m2 state-of-the-art campus, amalgamating two previous sites and ensuring the College's place at the forefront of educational provision in world-class facilities.


The opportunity:


We are looking to appoint an experienced, dynamic and enthusiastic Deputy Director of Music with the ability to teach and lead across our whole school music department, from Foundation Stage to Key Stage 5.

Specialist knowledge in a range of music pedagogies, alongside the ability to deliver GCSE and A-Level music is desirable.

An ability to lead on music initiatives and activities, as required by the Director of Music, in a confident and robust manner would be highly advantageous.


This role of a Deputy Director of Music is focused on developing effective relationships in order to cultivate a vibrant learning environment, helping to execute the operations of a busy whole-school department whilst motivating colleagues and students to pursue their individual best.

A keen interest in directing and contributing to a vast array of co-curricular musical ensembles on a weekly basis would be a welcome addition.

Experience in music technology would enable a smooth start in our digitally advanced learning environment.

Our Music classrooms are equipped with keyboards, Rock-band instruments, iMacs, surround sound, interactive smartboards, grand pianos and synthesisers.

In addition to this we have further practice rooms fully equipped with drum kits, bass and electric guitars plus keyboards.

We have a Mac Suite which runs Sibelius Ultimate and Logic Pro X, samba and jumbie jam kits, a full range of Nuvo wind instruments, guitars and ukuleles, djembes and percussion.


The Music Department runs an incredible array of events throughout the year from National Battle of the Bands in the Secondary School, to Qatar School Choir of the Year - a large choral event for children aged 5 to 18.

We also attend Young Musician of the Gulf annually and this year are due to host the global COBIS Music competition.

This is in addition to a full complement of internal concerts, productions and recitals. We are a busy and thriving team that requires energy, passion and commitment from its members.


All our classrooms are equipped with interactive smartboards and displays, all students are furnished with an iPad upon entry, and all staff and students use Google Classroom.
