I think you saw the construction of the new school buildings. A massive project that needs to be paid for.
All of these schools, including Doha College next door, Parkhouse and others are supplementing their income by levying different charges.
Doha College asks for a "capital charge" of 3000 Riyals per child per year in addition to the school fees. They say it's for improving school facilities and providing teacher accommodation as Doha is becoming more and more expensive.
Parkhouse has now resorted to requiring fee payment twice a year instead of the 3 that is the norm.
Of course this doesn't take into account the annual increase in fees.
Unless the government steps in and puts a cap on things this is going to continue.
