Doha, Qatar: The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE) will hold its annual ‘Back to School’ event for the 2025-2026 academic year at Qatar National Convention Centre (QNCC) today and tomorrow (August 25-26).

The event will be attended by Ministry leaders, educational cadres, students, parents, and the public. This event is part of the ministry’s efforts to create a stimulating educational environment that ensures an effective start to the new academic year.

In exclusive statements to Qatar News Agency (QNA), Director of the Public Relations and Communication Department at the Ministry, Maryam Abdullah Al Mohannadi said that this year’s event highlights the concept of well-being in education as one of Qatar’s strategic goals in education, promoting a safe and healthy start of the academic year.  She explained that this concept involves providing a balanced environment that supports students’ psychological, physical, and social aspects. She said the Ministry is working to prepare students psychologically and mentally through student-focused programmes and activities, while also equipping educational staff through workshops and training courses, in addition to completing the readiness of school buildings and providing necessary supplies and qualified cadres.

The event, she said, will also spotlight the role and status of teachers within the educational process, with graduates of the “Successful Start” and “Tamheen” programmes being honoured in recognition of their contributions to ensuring an exceptional school start. 

Al Mohannadi stressed that the event reflects the ministry’s belief that education is a shared responsibility between the Ministry and the community, aligning with the Third National Development Strategy and Qatar National Vision 2030.
