Doha British School, established and opened in October 1997, is a co-educational comprehensive International school in the Ain Khaled area of Doha, in the State of Qatar. It offers international education to students from pre-school to Year 13.[1] The student body comprises over 85 nationalities.

History

The school was originally known as Doha Montessori and British School (DMBS) before it was re-branded to Doha British School (DBS) in Spring 2011. The school delivers the National Curriculum for England throughout primary and secondary school, giving students the opportunity to complete International General Certificate of Secondary Education (International GCSE) qualifications during Years 10 and 11.

Doha British School offers both the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme and national AS Level to its sixth form students in Years 12 and 13. The institution became an IB World School in March 2010 and has since been delivering the Diploma Programme with a wide range of subjects from different disciplines for its students as a school-leaving qualification option. In September 2015, the AS Level award was introduced as another option for students to provide students with choice.{{cn|date=February 2018}}

The school has been an active member of the Duke of Edinburgh International Award.

The school has also been a driving force in founding the inter-school organization The British Schools of Qatar, and played an active role in the organization of the first ever BISQ Games, hosted at Aspire Zone in early 2018.

There is a second recently-founded Doha British School campus situated in the area of Al Wakra, which offers education for children from the levels of pre-school to Year 7, as of the 2017-18 academic year.

Future School Campuses are under construction. A Secondary School is underway in Al Wakra, with a complete School campus from Pre-School to Year 13 has been commissioned at Rawdat Al Hamama, a suburb of Lusail City.[2]

As of September 2018, the school has celebrated 21 Years of Excellence in Education since opening its doors in September 1997.
