How to get a good school in Doha?
I am from Pakistan. Recently we have moved to Doha. I have twin girls of age 5 & 1l2 and i am looking for their admission in school. Required grade is I. I have made so many calls and emails but most of them have one answer that there is no seat available n if you wish you can apply for a waiting list. My husband's employers will bear all the expenses of my kids education so i want to get them in a good school. But no one gave a positive reply. Kindly let me know the good schools in Doha. And how can i get into them. What about Pakistani schools here? My kids cant speak englisg fluently, I have checked web sites of most of the schools here. English is their basic criteria. Besides English which school is really good at its Academics. As schools are closed 4 Ramadan so i cant do any thing but i want to have all information in my hand before visiting the schools after Ramadan. Would any one like to help me out?
Ahmed_929 among the pakistani school results in doha ,PEC students always has best marks ..i myself was gold medalist in PEC.
Congratulations PEC!!!Ahmed_929, I don't know the entire recent results of the federal Board, but after reading your comment I browse PEC website and found;PEC girls notch top TWO slots in the entire Federal Board HSSC Examination.Anab Sundas bagged FIRST position by securing 945 marks and Huma Khalid got SECOND position by obtaining 938 marks in the entire Federal Board.Master Abdul Rehman Fayyaz got FIRST position in Pre-Engineering group by obtaining 1005 marks which is a record in the history of PEC.PEC got IST position in QATAR University Computing Contest 2011. PEC stood FIRST out of 72 teams participated in the contest from all over the Qatar. Well done girls and boys for setting a record!!
@blue.................how can you say that BOARD classes are in bad condition.............i hope you have seen the results announced recently???
If kids are not fluent in English tehy are unlikely to get admitted in any of the better schools.
PEC is goood but not as good as BFPIS............. BFPIS had the best result in the recently held FBISE exams...................................
Newton is the worse option of British Curriculum Schools in Qatar.
Do a search as this subject has been discussed many times recently. Use the search facility on this website.
i agree with hapy ..if ur husband's employer is paying the fee...then why not loook for good american or british schools.
if your husband's employer is paying for school fee then best option for you will be Newton British School (in Aziziya and not the C ring road). They will accept kids in grade 1 even if their English is not that good and kids learn quickly, in 6 months time they should be fluent.
bright future is good in junior clasess only...after that u have to shift to PEC...coz board class in bright future is really in bad condition.. like 9,10th 11, 12th they dont have enough students for board classes.most of the students move to PEC in board clasess
try bfps its coool
Thnx to all of you 4 your suggestions. I hope i will get a good school inshallah.Let me ask a question, among PEC and Bright Future which is good one?
BRIGHT FUTURE IS A GOOD SCHOOL !!!!TRY IT !!!!
After ramazan try in PEC.It is a Pakistani school situated in Abuhamur Road. Hope there will accept your kids admission.
Just keep trying and trying - many of us have been in the same boat - it takes time - given the age of the kids I would just get them in anywhere - even if its not one of the best schools and move them when you get a chance - Try people like Newton
pakistani schools are three
PEC
Pak shama
bright future
i think PEC is good among all other pakistani school.
otherwise there are many good school like qatar academy and some british or american schools are also here
