As the largest school in the QF family with over 1850 students, Qatar Academy Doha (QAD) is organized into Primary and Senior School divisions, with an Early Education Center for children as young as 6 months of age. QAD, an IB World School, is authorized for the PYP, MYP and DP. Half of QAD graduates leave with an IB Diploma and all graduate with a CIS/ NEASC accredited high school diploma giving them access to the elite universities and colleges in North America, Europe, Qatar and elsewhere. We adopt a Dual Language approach in the Primary early years (KG - Grade 1), however English is the language of instruction in all disciplines and subjects except Arabic, Islamic Studies and Qatar History which are taught in Arabic. Over 80% of QAD students are Qatari and a large majority are English Language Learners. Boys and girls are taught in mixed classes for the PYP and the DP, and separately for the MYP (Grades 6 - 10). QAD is an inclusive school that serves a wide variety of learning needs and abilities.
