I would like to know if anyone knows which english school is taking new students in Doha? We are from the suburbs of Chicago,Illinois and my husband has accepted an offer to work in Doha. Education is not included and I have to find a seat for our daughter ASAP(as soon as possible).She is in the 4th grade and just turned 9. The American School is full,Qatar Academy is full too. I have tried emailing other schools like The Cambridge and Doha British Montessori and not gotten very far. I need help! We need a seat for her in one of the international schools in Doha,any suggestions?PLEASE HELP

The Canadian school opened 3 years back, my son is there but unfortunatly they are only taking Canadian passport holders as their facility is too small. I think they were toying with the idea of opening it up a bit last year, you can give them a call, I will PM you the number.

The International School of London is opening this fall. They may have places. I also think there is a Canadian school starting this year, too. It might be a good option. You need to act fast to get a seat.

Best of luck

Afraid a majority of the schools in Doha are usually full before April of the prior school year and all have a waiting list.

You can try and call the schools and explain your situation, they may give you some info on schools they know with vacancies.
