Make sure you get the place sorted before you come here. French school is really fully booked now. My french speaking friend being told not too bother even putting her kids into the waiting list.

DESS have long waiting list too. They put priority for British passport holder.

Park House just moving to bigger premises ... they might be able to take more kids.

American and Canadian kids normally go to ASD (American School of Doha) that again have loooong waiting list.

Doha Independent School (DIS) .... some people like it some people don't. No idea why.

Newly open school : Newton and Compass. I heard one of them is sponsored by Shell for expat kids coming to Qatar in the future (they company plan to relocate huge amount of people to Doha).
