Welcome from The Head
It is my pleasure to welcome you to ACS Doha, a truly international learning community and one of Qatar’s premier schools. With roots in the American school system and a proud tradition of excellence, ACS Doha proudly offers the full continuum of International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes, as well as a full American diploma. This allows our students access to a globally recognized education grounded in inquiry, reflection, and real-world connection.
At ACS Doha, we welcome everyone—celebrating the diversity of our students, families, and staff as a strength that enriches our community. We are committed to preparing our students for a rapidly changing world by nurturing curiosity, compassion, and a sense of purpose. Childhood is a precious time, and we take seriously our role in helping each young person grow into who they are meant to be.
We encourage our students to aim high and make it happen, to imagine better, and to take ownership of their learning. We work together to solve problems, face challenges, and embrace new ideas. And above all, we strive to act with kindness—because we believe that character, empathy, and integrity matter just as much as academic success.
I invite you to explore all that ACS Doha has to offer. It would be our privilege to partner with you in supporting your child’s journey. Welcome to a school where learning has purpose, people feel they belong, and the future is full of possibility.
Warm regards,
Dr. Robert S. Jackson

An international school.
A welcoming community. An incredible learning experience.
Our state-of-the-art campus, opened in August 2020, buzzes every day with a multicultural mix of over 900 students from more than 72 countries. With the support of 100 expert staff, our students have access to excellent teaching, modern facilities, and tailored personal support.
The global outlook of our school is reflected in our internationally accredited curriculum, which is underpinned by the international baccalaureate (IB) framework but also integrates elements of the US educational model such as Advance Placement and US High School Diploma. This structure ensures all students work towards internationally recognized educational goals, making it possible to pursue the best possible opportunities in their next step.
“We are proud to provide every pupil with every element they need to succeed. Our support goes beyond the classroom; it is an education that will benefit students for life.”
Appreciating individuals. Learning together.
Our educational approach embraces the fact that every child comes to ACS Doha with his or her own cultural perspective as well as their own hopes, aspirations and passions.
We support this by balancing the pursuit of academic endeavor with a caring environment that promotes each student’s ability and learning style. At a cultural level, differences are accepted, explored and celebrated as part of everyday life, providing the right conditions to nurture lifelong friendships.
The combination of our approach to pastoral care, our individualized academic programs and our broad co-curricular offering ensures that children are happy students at ACS Doha and successful citizens of the world, ready for whatever awaits them in the future.
