About us

QIS is one of the best international schools both in the nation of Qatar and in the wider Middle East region - we are one of a selected number of schools in the world to hold BSO’s ‘Gold Standard’. Our recent BSO report (2023) wrote:
“Qatar international School offers an excellent British education that fully meets the needs of its students: as a result, they enjoy school, learn well and thrive”.

“The students at QIS are characterised by their remarkable enthusiasm for learning and their exceptional behaviour, which unequivocally reflect their profound motivation to excel academically. Students’ behaviour is exceptional, as is their attendance in school indicating high levels of enjoyment”.

“Relationships at all levels provide a highly positive learning environment where children thrive. Adults nurture children’s personal development and well-being extremely effectively”.

Our Primary School - currently comprised of about 1,100 students - is a vibrant, fun and multicultural place of learning. It offers an engaging and warm environment, where children and staff alike are encouraged to investigate and develop their curiosity.

Across each Key Stage, our students enjoy a creative, skills based, curriculum delivered through 'I wonder' and continuous provision (EYFS), continuous provision /thematic learning (KS1), and thematic learning (KS2). Specialist lessons for Arabic, Islamic Studies, PE, French, Music, and DT form part of students’ personalised timetables, supporting further our broad and balanced curriculum offer. Our class teachers are highly trained in programmes such as Talk 4 Writing and Read-Write-Inc, which we use to enrich the children’s learning. Classes are supported by trained, qualified, and experienced Learning Support Practitioners.
