About our school
Nestled just 30 minutes north of the bustling capital of Qatar, Doha, Nord Anglia International School Al Khor (NAISAK) is not just a place of learning—it’s a thriving hub within the local community. At the heart of NAISAK’s success is a vibrant, dedicated team of professionals who are committed to nurturing over 1100 young minds, ranging from 3 to 18 years old.
Al Khor itself is one of Qatar’s oldest towns, offering a serene, welcoming environment away from the hustle and bustle of city life, yet close enough to Doha to enjoy all the capital has to offer. This quaint town provides a peaceful backdrop for our school, making it an ideal setting for both learning and personal growth.
At NAISAK, we offer a broad, bespoke curriculum that caters to a wide range of interests and needs. Our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) classrooms have recently undergone a beautiful refurbishment, creating an enchanting and stimulating learning environment tailored specifically for our youngest learners. This transformation ensures that every child is welcomed into a space designed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning from the very start of their educational journey.
Building on the foundation laid in our EYFS, our Key Stage 1 and 2 programs are experiencing exciting growth. In these stages, students are immersed in a dynamic learning environment that encourages exploration, critical thinking, and a deeper understanding of the world around them.
As our students progress into Key Stages 3, 4, and 5, they embark on an academically rigorous journey, culminating in the pursuit of GCSEs and A-Levels. This critical phase prepares them not only for academic excellence but also for the challenges and opportunities of the wider world, laying a solid foundation for university and beyond.
At NAISAK, we understand the importance of a supportive learning environment. We prioritise student and staff wellbeing, personalised learning journeys, and a strong sense of multiculturalism and global citizenship.
Joining the team at NAISAK offers the unique opportunity to work in a wonderful school environment, while enjoying the vibrant lifestyle of Doha. This blend offers an unparalleled lifestyle and professional experience, complete with the benefits of working in a globally recognised school. Here, you’ll find a supportive community, professional growth opportunities, and the chance to make a significant impact on the lives of young learners in a stunning setting.
