The 10 Best Schools in Qatar, 2021
A bright future for education in Qatar
Sand dunes and shorelines, futuristic high rises, the modern architecture and the ancient one is what describe Qatar the best. It is also known for The Limestone Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, which is a blend of modern architecture inspired by Islamic architecture and for being the richest country in the world.

It is rated as high-income economy by the World Bank by virtue of being the third largest natural gas reserves and oil reserves. Its Al Jazeera Media Network is a globally renowned media group. But Qatar is much more than these. Qatar will be the first Arabic country to host the FIFA World Cup next year and Asian Games in 2030. And when it comes to education Qatar has emerged remarkably well in a relatively short period of time.

With approximately 338 international schools in the country, Qatar is creating waves in the education sphere. Education here is very diverse and caters to all kinds of students. Though formal schooling began very late in Qatar as compared to the other countries, education in Qatar has picked ...
... up very well in the country. Several reputed universities across the world have set up their campuses here. But it was around two decades ago that the Qatari government became serious about reforming the education system in Qatar and to enhance the quality of education. For this purpose, it hired RAND Corporation to analyse the education system, after which the Supreme Education Council launched the Education for a New Era Initiative.

Qatar then went on to adopt the Western education system for its pre-school education. With the education reforms, Qatar witnessed a new dawn in education and number of independent schools opened. Since then there has been no looking back for Qatar in providing quality education and to continuously keep raising the standards of education.

Several international schools were opened for the children of the expatriate population in Qatar. Besides upgrading the school and college education, the Qatari government has taken up a huge initiative to encourage research by high school students in Science technology engineering and mathematics. This opened many avenues for students to explore their interests in research.

In 2009, it also launched the World Innovation Summit for education, a global platform to discuss education related issues. Qatar thus began emerging as the new education hub and began to be recognised for it, not just for its oil reserves and wealth.

Today, Qatar is in constant pursuit of working on its education system and in improving the quality of education. The world now recognises Qatar as a country that is serious about providing the best in education. The country is making great strides in education to provide the best of international curriculum to its students. Qatar boasts of number of its students being placed in universities across the world.

Recognising this emerging education hub and as a tribute to the efforts of educators there, we at The Knowledge Review came up with an edition specially dedicated to education in Qatar – The 10 Best Schools in Qatar. The future of education in Qatar looks bright.
