not be able to send your child there. the independent schools are qatari schools run by other organizations, instead of the government. What you will be needing is an international school and they are all private. You would probably be most comfortable in either the American or British System schools, but may wish to consider the french schools and then so on and so on.

The bad news is the lower the grade, the harder it is to find a place in schools. Most schools are completely full and have long waiting lists, especially this time of year. You will need to apply to MANY schools and then are still not guaranteed a place for this year. Good luck
