french school in doha
By Don Corleone •
I was wondering if anyone has kids in the french school. i will be moving to doha next month while my family will follow next september. I have a 6 and a 3 years old kids and we are planning to put them in the french school, so i was wondering if anyone can help me with the first steps that i should take, like is there a waiting list and if so for how long, second is it a good school?
I have 3 kids 6,4,2 years Iam Egyptian I heard about Maghreb international school it is a French school is it a good or bad one plz answer me I don't have other options coz lycée Voltaire refused my kids as there is no places available for them
Quelques écoles françaises au Qatar..nous avons besoin de Don Corleone au Qatar ...!!!
I have three Kids (13, 9, 6) and I'm looking for a good International French school in Doha..as I understood there are only two schools Lycee Voltere and Lycee Bonaparte..I think the second one is the one affiliated to the embassy?? Wouls someone confirm his, also I need an advice from whoever have experience with those schools??
Currently there is only one French School in Doha, the other, where my son is, Voltaire, is a Francophone Independent School, i.e., no affiliation to the Embassy or any organization in France as samabd said
SO what is the best french schools in Qatar now?
The school's management is quite unstable
They lack vision an leadership they are unsure about program to deliver international baccalaureate or French one
They have changed director two times in the last year
Many teachers are leaving
They also left the mlf network which provides support in terms of teachers training methods organization etc
It is basically not a very promising school for the moment
My daughter started at lycee voltaire 4 years ago when the school first started. she is in CP now and doing fabulous. My son will also be in Petit section next year. The school is really good. The education level is very high comparable to lycee bonaparte. the advantage is that as the school is still small and growing the administration and teachers put in a lot of effort and attention to the general progress of the child, the class and overall school. Now the premises are not too impressive and activities are limited.
Hi, Anyone on this page has an update on lycee voltaire? we registered our son, 3 yr old in it for the 2011-2012 academic year. plz let us know

HI
Can any one give me the phone number of the french school please.i'm trying to access the website but it seems imposible.i don't know why.
there is a second french school called the lycee voltaire that has just opened now in september, they might take on your kids the kindergarten is very good but the other classes are having teething problems which will hopefully be resolved shortly
No I meant 2006-2007 when I asked them about 2007-2008 they said it is still too early to know and they cannot give any reply now
thanks gus for the effort, but did you mean 2007-2008 coz thats what i need , 2006-2007 is fine with me, i was talking about next september 2007
Don, bad news. I spoke to the head of primary education in the school and she didn't think twice before she said no and that's impossible next year (2006-2007).
I say don't give up and try to contact them directly through their website. Your embassy could help also. Good luck
Hi gus and thank you for your reply. yes i would really be interested if you can see if canadians are an exception since 2008 as quiet a problem for me. Anyway i am from quebec which is the french speaking part of canada, and my wife is lebanese but french educated and my kids only speak french.
I have two kids in the french school (7 & 5 years old). As far as I know they are overbooked till 2008. This year they added new classes because of the number of student.
But there are always exceptions based on nationality (french is the preferred, then the french speaking european countries). I'm not sure if Canada is on the list. I can check and let you know if you are interested.
As for being a good school, for me it is very good on Doha's standard. but the judgement depends on where you are coming from and what level is considered good for you. sometimes they do compromise on the quality of teachers because of the shortage of the qualified french speaking teachers in Doha.
