Doha Academy – Al Waab School

We live in a rapidly changing world, where we must prepare our students for life in a society where they will work in jobs that do not currently exist, employing technologies that have not yet been invented. Doha Academy aims to provide its students with an education for life, along with developing the ‘whole child’ in conjunction with strong academic knowledge.

As with all our schools, our vision is to promote global leadership through the provision of a contextually-based outstanding education based upon the teachings and principles of Islam. Our purpose is to facilitate the development of students holistically. To this end we adapt our curriculum so that it is accessible to all and provide a rich array of learning opportunities.

Through the National Curriculum for England at Doha Academy, we place significant emphasis on the development of personal learning and thinking skills that will result in young leaners who are able to adapt and develop broadly. The aim is to produce learners who develop a deep core of essential knowledge who can then apply their learning to different situations. We believe that all children are naturally inquisitive and we therefore aim to build upon this curiosity for knowledge and understanding.

Our Al Waab campus is divided into three blocks: Block A hosts the Secondary Boys’ section, Block B hosts the EYFS and Primary section, and Block C hosts the Secondary Girls’ section. The school is split comfortably over four floors and compromises of 160 well-furnished and equipped classrooms. Our class sizes are small and with a total building size measuring over 19,000 sqm there is ample space for students to learn comfortably. The campus boasts three libraries, three indoor gyms, three medical clinics with full time nurses, numerous science labs, a large auditorium and outside play areas. Wi-Fi extends to all teaching and learning areas.
