if you're a QP employee living in Dukhan, the company will provide a school bus for your kids if they are to go to school in Doha (more or less 1hr travel) but there is also a school in Dukhan where they can go to...

dukhan is a 2 hour ride from doha by karwa bus. if by private car, could take you atleast an hour. for QP staff and their families, they have the privelege of having a free ride going to doha and back to dukhan. they also have buses for ladies for their shopping (its called the shopping trip) every day at 8am! on the weekend, they have 2 buses (one for bachelors and one for ladies and families) to doha. they leave at 7am and go back to dukhan at 1pm. there is also another schedule in the afternoon at 3pm and leave doha to dukhan at 8pm.

Dukhan to Doha is 80km & it takes around 50-60minutes reaching outskirts of Doha. To doha interior another 30-50min.

Dukhan has a British school for QP employees. QP provides with school buses to Doha. There are buses going to Indian, Tunisian & Philipino schools.

There's a school in Dukhan. I know a few of the teachers there. - got to be easier on the kids than a huge commute every day!
