Al Jazeera Academy - A Unique Cultural Experience

Al Jazeera Academy provides a  wonderful experience for prospective staff to work and grow in a unique cultural setting. Our students are mostly native Qatari, well motivated, courteous and a pleasure to work with. The Islamic Values which underpin the school's ethos are universal. Both Muslim and non Muslim teachers are welcome to apply. The emphasis is on respect.

Located in Doha in Qatar, in total, there are almost 1800 students (KG through to Year 12) in Al Jazeera Academy. Al Jazeera is an English National Curriculum School which originally opened in September 2002, it caters for students from 3 to 18 years of age.  The Academy provides three integrated learning environments, a well-resourced Kindergarten, a large Primary and a Secondary Boys' and Girls' School. 

Students follow an adapted version of the English National Curriculum with approximately 25% of the curriculum set aside for Arabic Medium subjects, including Islamic Studies and  Qatar History. Although the students are EAL learners  they are immersed in English from an early age and increasing majority will study for first language IGCSE and AS level qualifications. External exam results are on an impressively rising trend and standards tend to be well above published UK national averages .  Virtually all students progress to university either in the UK or US or attending the Qatar based universities situated in Education City.

The Academy holds current Qatar National Schools Accreditation and was also recently accredited with the prestigious Western Association of Schools and Colleges.as a benchmark of international quality.

We value very highly our wide range of community partnerships and look to appoint teachers who are also passionate about strengthening community links for themselves and the children in their care. 

Life in Doha

In common with the majority of international schools, day to day life is professionally demanding.
