my sister and brother were in that school,, but then they have moved into another school,, i have notice that the school education is not that fair for primary students, i mean like not that good.. sorry but i don’t think this school is good for your daughter there. if you want her to enter a good English school i suggest to put her in an international school, like Qatar academy or Aljazeera academy or even QIS,

I have two children at this school. The standard of education is excellent in my opinion. We are British and have come from a very good school in England. If you compare the key achievements required for each grade they are as they should be or ahead of the standards set out for the British curriculum. I have found the staff to be very approachable and organised. The one area where the school falls down is in sporting facilities. These are very sparse however they do have sports lessons. The school is not "flash" but the teachers seem to stick around which I think is very important especially having heard about the high staff turnover at other establishments. In order to maintain the high standards there is also quite a lot of homework and testing, personally I don't mind but some may find this a problem. With regards to the current fee structure I have looked around other British curriculum schools and found that you would need to pay at least treble to get improvements in anything other than sporting facilities. The pupils are mainly from Arab nations however there are a few from non Arab nations, such as my own. They have had absolutly no issues making friends, infact they seem to be very popular.

I've been through this exercise for the second year now. Up to my knowledge, within the fees range of Noor ElKhalij, it is the best. Any "slightly better" options will be much higher in fees and unlikely to get a place.
