About Queen's College Qatar

Our Brand-New British Curriculum School will open with state-of-the-art facilities in September 2024 in line with the Artemis belief and Promise the school will:

  • Empower our Educators – We believe in allowing our educators to do what they are employed to do; to teach our students and support them on their learning journey throughout their time at Queen's College Qatar. Our school has a holistic view of education. Rigorous learning and teaching are of course vital, but to enable students to realise their full potential, build resilience and become responsible citizens of the world, we must combine that with rich experiences and opportunities to make a difference.
  • Offer a Student-centred Curriculum – We are proud of our curriculum. Thoughtfully designed to not only impart knowledge but also to nurture and develop skills needed to become lifelong learners. Students will have the opportunity to explore their interests and passions, fostering a love for learning that extends far beyond the classroom. Through hands-on experiences, enquiry-based learning, and personalised opportunities we aim to empower students to take ownership of their education and become active, curious, and self-driven learners. We ask that our educators think critically about our curriculum and suggest adaptations and developments.
  • Be Future Ready Through Technology – We recognise the power of technology in education, and we aim to use it effectively to enhance learning and prepare students for the future. Through the thoughtful use of technology, we provide students with opportunities to engage in interactive and immersive learning experiences. Our teachers will be encouraged to develop the use of technology in the classroom and beyond to ensure our offering accommodates the developments and changes happening globally.
  • Offer Outstanding Facilities – Our school's infrastructure has been designed based on the latest developments in learning space design to enhance the effectiveness of our education. Within the school, our facilities are world-class. From our fantastic adventure playground in the Foundation Stage to digital coding labs, competition swimming pool, and 550-seater auditorium, students will be able to develop their passions in all fields.
