Top 20 IGCSE Schools in Doha

Doha has a strong concentration of international schools offering British-style pathways, including Cambridge IGCSE. Families typically rank schools on senior programme quality, subject breadth, and how the school builds exam technique (mocks, past papers, feedback cycles).

What to ask for (IGCSE outcomes + evidence)

• Subject-by-subject outcomes and number of exam entries
• Options blocks for IGCSE subjects (availability matters)
• How exam-year support works (revision plans, intervention, feedback)
