Doha Academy is an expanding network of schools located in the vibrant capital of Qatar. Established in 2000, the Academy comprises three schools and provides a KG-13 education based on the British curriculum alongside the Qatar national curriculum. The mission of Doha Academy is to cultivate outward-looking, lifelong learners through a comprehensive educational framework that is rooted in local cultural values and traditions.

As an ambitious institution governed by Al Faleh Educational Holding, which also includes AFG College with the University of Aberdeen, Doha Academy offers remarkable career advancement prospects for staff who are ambitious, innovative, and focused on student-centered decision-making.

The school places a strong emphasis on safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, expecting all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
