Doha: Over 131,000 students will head to their classrooms on Sunday, September 1, in 215 public schools, 70 integration schools, seven Al Hidaya Special Needs Schools, and 64 kindergartens.

Speaking to Qatar News Agency (QNA), Director of the Department of Schools and Student Affairs of the MoEHE, Mariam Al Nisf Al Buainain, said the ministry is all set to welcome the students after finalising preparations for the new academic year.

She affirmed that the ministry is committed to offering quality educational atmosphere through developing all the fundamental components of education, including the pedagogical cadres, infrastructure and educational resources in coordination with relevant bodies.

She highlighted that the educational system comprises private schools that offer professional technical skills that would provide the Qatari community with highly talented students who can advance the development process Qatar is witnessing.

Al Buainain pointed out that the registration of students in public schools and kindergartens has begun via ‘Maarif’ portal on the MoEHE website. She called on parents to capitalise on this online service to register their sons and daughters and fill out all the required forms.
