About the School
Vision International School (VIS) is an international American curriculum school established in partnership with the school’s owner, the Almuftah Group.
Located in Al Wakrah, a rapidly growing suburb of Doha, the creation of Vision International School responded to the need for quality K-12 schools in Qatar. The “international” focus of VIS is the result of the former ISS partnership with the Almuftah Group; with an ever-growing local Qatari and expatriate student population the idea of establishing a school outside of Doha was visionary and the “vision” has become a reality!
After nine successful years and continued growth, Vision International School is now entering year ten.
Our diverse and international faculty of educators are excited to have the opportunity to provide our students with a world-class education. With each successive year, VIS has added a grade level; the result of which is now our current Preschool – Grade Twelve educational institution.
Our school program is constructed around a philosophy that provides a rigorous and relevant educational pathway for students to become lifelong independent learners. We strive to provide a learning environment of structure, balance, flexibility, inquiry, and accountability. Our school will continue to evolve with continuous improvement that supports the VIS vision, mission, learning results, and the students and families we serve.
