King's College Doha: An Outstanding School
King’s College Doha proudly shares the highest school ranking in Qatar. We were awarded a five-year accreditation as an ‘Outstanding’ school by the Qatar National Schools Accreditation (QNSA) in May 2022.
The State of Qatar initiated the QNSA for private schools in 2011 to ensure its educational institutions meet rigorous international standards for performance and quality. This accreditation system provides quality assessments based on a school's academic, educational, and administrative performance.
The three possible outcomes following a QNSA accreditation visit are:
Denial of accreditation: Issued for ‘Unsatisfactory’ performance
Three-year QNSA accreditation: Issued for ‘Good’ performance
Five-year QNSA accreditation: The highest possible achievement, awarded for ‘Outstanding’ performance
We were delighted that our classification as an ‘Outstanding’ school garnered high praise from our famous sister school, King’s College UK.
