We are also to Doha From South Africa end of Dec and are looking for schools. I spoke to someone on the phone from DMBS and she was most helpful. We will be going for our test as soon as school reopens. I am astounded by all the negative comments about the schools there and makes one wonder if uprooting your kids and taking them to another country is really worth it. It is already a huge undertaking for them, so for them to be happy at a school is vital. Is anyone out there happy with DMBS? Im getting worried now.....
