Job description

Doha British Schools – Ain Khaled Campus

Doha British Schools are a group of outstanding international schools providing a high-quality British education to over 4,000 students across Qatar. Each campus offers a strong pastoral programme and an extensive range of extra-curricular opportunities.

Each of our campuses operates under the experienced leadership of the Principal, supported by the Head of Primary and Head of Secondary. Our schools foster an ethos of high expectations, academic excellence, and personal growth. Character development is central to our culture and embedded in every aspect of school life.

What makes Doha British Schools unique is our unwavering commitment to holistic education. In addition to academic excellence — we nurture students who are ready to thrive in a rapidly changing world. Established in 1997 at our Ain Khaled campus, DBS has since expanded to include Al Wakra and Rawdat Al Hamama, each offering the same high-quality British curriculum and distinctive Sixth Form pathways. The Ain Khaled campus offers AS/A Levels, the IB Diploma, and BTEC programmes; Al Wakra offers AS/A Levels and BTEC programmes; and Rawdat Al Hamama offers AS/A Levels.

We believe every learner can, needs, and wants to achieve. Character development remains central to our ethos, ensuring our students grow into confident, respectful, and socially responsible global citizens.

All Doha British Schools are accredited by BSO, BSME, QNSA, and CIS. We take pride in our inclusive and diverse community.
