First-of-its-kind ‘Progressive’ School launched by Qatar Foundation
Bringing in yet another innovative model to Qatar’s education scene, Qatar Foundation (QF) has announced the opening of a progressive school embedded within Education City for children as young as three up to the ages of six.
Named as “Academyati,” the school falls under the umbrella of QF’s Pre-University Education (PUE) and is all set to offer an unparalleled, enriching educational experience to young children in Qatar.

The school takes the concept of personalized education and presents it in a unique light such that the educational focus is shared between personal and academic development.
According to QF the school is currently open for admissions for the 2019-2020 academic year and sessions will commence this August, reported Qatar Tribune.
Academyati features a specifically tailored program that will nurture children enrolled in the program to realize their skills that would help them become the leaders of tomorrow.
President of Pre-University Education (PUE) Buthaina Ali alNuaimi said the school will “bring a whole new educational experience to Qatar.”
“A bilingual school offering individualized education, with an emphasis on experiential learning within an innovative educational ecosystem that will work in close partnership with parents and families, Academyati will graduate students who are aware, confident, empowered, and can bring positive change to their world,” she added.
The school is centered on a holisitic-learning model that is carefully delivered keeping in view each child’s unique and specific needs, interests, and strengths. Academyati will have a fully developed personal place for each child to facilitate the young learner’s personal growth and creative thinking process in a stimulating environment, as reported by Gulf Times.
Director of Academyati Maryam Alhajri said: “Academyati stands for Innovation in Learning. We believe in trusting today’s children. By exposing our children to experiences and quests as a way of learning, we aim to fuel children’s independence, empathy, curiosity, and creativity through their journey in Academyati. We have faith that their inner gifts will shape amazing outcomes.”
Children at the school will be grouped in multi-age groups, a non-typical approach to enable each child to grasp knowledge and skills at their own pace from older and younger class fellows around them and in a more conducive setting.
Instead of a conservative style of subject-based teaching, the Academyati will provide children with experiences and quests, open-ended, problem-solving activities focused on real-world problems that inspire them to explore, innovate, and find solutions to problems, and that have real-world relevance and enduring value to their lives, according to The Peninsula.
Parents and families whose children enroll at the school will play an active role in their child’s learning process as the school intends to be actively connected with them to know more about the child’s interests and skills.

PL, So sweet of you, really.
Why write essay when you can just say, "Daaa Potta Moltaa"
xD
Accha , You essay is not about the TOPIC .
So it is not helpful for anybody.
You are wasting your time n life for others back-biting .
If I could just let people know all the nonsense you have been posting for the past several years, they will get to know you well.
Here is a list of some of the STUPID things you have posted over the past several years:
1) If you are facing problems in the company take your boss's wife out to dinner! (Ha! Ha!)
2) "Drink camel milk and eat dates" which was the standard cure you recommended for ALL illnesses wherever advice was sought at QL. I guess this cure has now become a bit outdated and you have stopped posting it. (Ha! Ha!)
3) You had a shop in Wakra near the bakery where one could get all his jobs done from a haircut to oil change of his car to repair of his boat to finding a plumber to getting a hot meal... etc. The shop was said to be located near a bakery but it had no name nor was it on any street with name in Wakra. Remember?
4) Your "promise" of 3 mins or 3 days or 3 weeks to people at QL is just nothing but false and open lies. And when people have asked if someone was coming from say Chennai on such a date as he would like company for his old mother, you always had a neigbour available but would confirm in "3 days". This continues till this day and even today you told someone your friend would be calling in "3 mins" to a company.
However, among the very s-t-u-p-i-d comments you have been posting for several years, there were some r-e-m-a-r-k-a-b-l-e ones that made people ROFL: 1) The construction of the Pakistan embassy building would be a burden on the country's economy! 2) If your car is facing starting problems in the morning, first check the tyre pressure! 3) What is the purpose of getting your spouse here?
Want to hear more Molten Metal? I have a complete list of all your stupid comments, false promises, false hopes and lies you have been involved in for the past seven years.
Just try recalling all the people you have fought with over the past so many years since you have been at QL. I am not the o first or the only one.
I don't post rubbish. If I don't know, I don't write, It is as simple as that. I don't wish to see my name at all posts appearing at QL as you do. .
@Molten, Thanks
You poison against others on each n every forum, without understanding it first, you confuse the new comers, you send people to particular shops ...... ??
Good thing they never go there, may they will include some commission ??
You send them to Human rights , you make gap between workers and sponsors which is unacceptable ....... You ask workers to oppose and complaint against their sponsors for very small matters which is very serious.
You ask strangers emails , you ask their messages , that is doubtful ...................
You post as a reaction, you post hateredness, you post vengeance , you post to confront, you post as a jealousy in your mind .........
Molten: I am far, far, far ahead of you and your good friend Britonie in thinking and actions and comments at QL. I don't post nonsense. I don't misguide people. I don't give people false hopes. I don't tell lies to people seeking genuine advice or help. I don't wish to see my name on each and every post that appears at QL as the first person to comment. If you add these "qualities" of yours together, you will realize who is ahead. Just on today's page your name appears at 14 posts out of 20 (so far!), and still adding.
Accha, Agree with you, we should learn till our last breath.
We won't be coming back again.
But I can't see you lagging behind that too with your own choice ??
Akin, Yes everybody is welcome ....... Please ..........
Molten: You should join as this is a "Progressive" school and it will d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y help you progress in proper thinking and in posting sensible comments at QL. That would bring relief to many.
Take your close friend Britonie along with you.
This is a great development.....Will expatriates' children of non-Arabic Descent be accepted in this school?
Actually this was much in need for the recent past, this is right decision, right thinking, it will help us a lot, our kids will benefit in more ways than one, I am so happy , yea ..............
