The Ministry of Education and Higher Education opens five new preparatory and secondary schools for boys and girls in a number of population centers in the country, in order to provide the best possible educational experience for students and to achieve Qatar's development goals and National Vision 2030.
The new schools will start receiving students with the beginning of the new academic year 2022-2023, with each school able to accommodate 786 students, 36 of them have special needs, divided into 6 classes, and the remaining students (750 students) divided into 30 classrooms.
The schools are distinguished by their modern buildings that unite with the educational system in facilitating the work of administrative and teaching bodies and making the educational process smoother and richer for students. Each school includes a sports hall, a theater, science laboratories, art workshops, computer Labs, outdoor playgrounds, in addition to an air-conditioned school assembly yard and dedicated parking.
