How do I find a good school for my 11 year old granddaughter?

We will be moving to Qatar in 15 days and my granddaughter needs to transfer schools to complete the year. There are so many schools in Doha. What recommendations could you give me for this American young lady?

If you want her to stay with the American curriculum, then ASD is the best choice.

Most English-speaking schools in Qatar follow a strict British or international curriculum, both of which are significantly different than the America.

Hi,

My 8 year old son is going to NBS (Newton British School) and he enjoys it alot. Even though they are a bit more expensive(+-QR35000 a year) the teachers are excellent and as well as the enviroment. Hope you enjoy Qatar.
