TAILOR-MADE LEARNING FOR YOUR CHILD

At every stage of their education – from early years through to secondary – your child will follow tailored pathways that embrace their interests, talents, and aspirations. At secondary level, they’ll have the unique opportunity to choose between A-levels and the IBDP.

Our curriculum is enhanced by innovative collaborations with The Juilliard School and MIT, which offer exclusive access to the world’s best performing arts and STEAM programmes. And on Nord Anglia’s Global Campus learning platform, your child will solve problems, tackle challenges, and collaborate on one-off projects with children across 32 countries.

Adapting the curriculum to each student’s needs helps them to achieve fantastic results. In 2021, our IBDP students scored 15% above the global average – the highest marks in our history. Our academic excellence will propel your child to the world’s top universities, including Hofstra in New York, the University of Aberdeen, and University of Reading.

The key to an exceptional learning experience is an inspirational teacher, which is why we only recruit the most passionate, gifted people. All our teachers are fully qualified, fluent English speakers. And in subjects like the performing arts and STEAM, our teachers work closely with specialists in their fields.

Our classes have an average student-teacher ratio of 12:1, guaranteeing your child will get the attention they deserve. At every stage of our students’ education, teachers monitor academic progress, set targets and – really importantly – keep an eye on their wellbeing. To make sure every student is supported, we also have dedicated English as an Additional Language (EAL) and Additional Learning Needs teams.

Like our students, we encourage our teachers to expand their knowledge. Through Nord Anglia University, teachers access trailblazing academic ideas and training courses – including the Master’s in International Education.

Compass is one vibrant school community spread across three campus locations, which are all easy to reach from Doha's city centre.

At each of our campuses, specialist facilities – which include swimming pools, ICT suites, music studios, and sports halls – create the perfect environment for your child to thrive. Our purpose-built, state-of-the-art campus, Themaid, houses some of the finest school facilities in Qatar – including innovative performing arts spaces and a STEAM learning lab.

Being part of the Nord Anglia family means we have some of the most advanced EdTech in the world. This includes our secure Global Campus learning platform, which our students access on their laptops and iPads. Your child will learn in exciting new ways alongside more than 70,000 children worldwide. You’ll have access to Global Campus too, so you can keep track of your child’s success.

At Compass, learning happens everywhere, every single day. Your child will follow their passions, showcase their talents, and discover new interests – both in lessons and through a myriad of extra-curricular opportunities. 

We equip our students to become creative global citizens through personalised programmes in art, music, dance, drama and STEAM, which – because of our collaborations with The Juilliard School and MIT – are unmatched in the region. At our award-winning Young Innovators Club, students shine in international competitions and solve genuine challenges facing the world today. 

We’re proud to be the only school in Qatar accredited to teach Dutch. Our students can also follow an advanced French programme, as well as native and non-native Arabic. This gives them a real understanding of and appreciation for local culture and history. 

On our sports pitches and in our state-of-the-art gyms and swimming pools, your child will get moving and improve their physical and emotional wellbeing. And our residential trips to Tanzania and Switzerland offer life-changing experiences that open minds and expand horizons.

Our vibrant international school is home to families from more than 80 countries. Your child will be part of a welcoming community where they can follow their own path to success.

As well as making sure your child is happy, we offer you plenty of support, too. Our Friends of Compass School group brings parents together for regular get-togethers. And at our annual Class in Action Day, you can sit in on lessons and take part in activities, gaining a real insight into how personalised learning works.

Being part of the Nord Anglia family of schools also brings lots of benefits, including access to world-class EdTech and a network of friends in more than 30 countries worldwide.

Our graduates go on to do remarkable things, and your child will be part of an alumni network that spans the globe. Every year, we invite former students back to talk about life beyond our school, inspiring our current students to believe anything is possible.

From beach clean-ups and animal welfare expeditions, to outreach projects in Tanzania, our students are dynamic advocates for change in our community and across the globe.  

Through our exclusive collaboration with UNICEF, your child can take part in the Global Challenge, coming together with students from across Nord Anglia’s family of schools at the High Level Political Forum in New York. There, our students contribute to workshops and seminars, and speak up on the issues that matter – influencing world leaders and making the planet a better place. 

On our Young Learners’ programme, students come up with ideas to improve environmental sustainability. Collaborating with friends and the local community, our students build confidence, resilience and teamwork skills. Your child will also work on high profile projects in the region through partnerships with the Ministry of Education and Qatar Museums.
