Admission

Our admissions process is designed to help families find the right learning environment for their child, with personalised guidance and support throughout.

Admissions – Simple Guide for Parents

Inclusive School

  • We accept students from all nationalities.
  • Every application is reviewed individually.
  • Students are placed according to their age on 1st September, or their Transfer Certificate (if coming from a school in Qatar).
  • We do not move students up or down a grade unless there are very special reasons and approval from the Ministry of Education.

Language Requirement

  • Children (Year 1 to 6) must have basic English skills to understand the British Curriculum.
  • Priority is given to:
  • Students who meet the English requirement
  • Siblings of current students
  •  

STEP 1 – Initial Application

You may apply:

  • In person at the school, or
  • Through our website
  • Please make sure your phone number and email are correct.

STEP 2 – Document Review

If selected, you will be asked for documents such as:

  •  School reports from last year + any reports from this year (in English)
  • Recent photograph
  • Child’s Qatar ID
  • Any documents about additional needs (if applicable)

Please note: Being asked for documents does not guarantee a place. Applications are first checked through school and behaviour reports.

STEP 3 – Entrance Assessment

If the application passes the first review:

  • Your child will be invited for an entrance assessment.
  • An assessment fee (Y1 – 6) must be paid before or on the assessment day.
  • If your child does not attend the assessment without informing us, the application may not be considered again for that year.

EYFS Assessment (Pre-school/Foundation Stage) Teachers will check:

  • Social skills
  • Ability to follow instructions
  • Ability to separate from parents
  • Readiness for school

Year 1 – Year 6 Assessment

Important: We cannot admit students who need high levels of learning or behavioural support, as we do not have the specialised services required. Please share all information honestly during the application process.
