We understand that your relocation or the timing for changing schools for your child may not coincide with the start of the school year or the beginning of a term.

If your company operates under our guaranteed places scheme (please check with your HR office) then please submit the application in the usual manner.
Here is an outline of the process that we follow for all new school admissions alongside our school Admissions Policy. Please feel free to ask us questions at any time during the process.
Whilst we offer an open admissions policy, we do test all applicants from Early Years 1 to Year 12. From Year 4 upwards, we do in-classroom assessments and all students are required to complete an entrance assessment to ensure that we can meet your child's individual learning requirements. Tests are online and can be administered at Compass International School Doha or, if more convenient, at your child's current school. If your child is to be tested at their current school, we will require your current school's approval and confirmation that they are willing to invigilate the tests under examination conditions.
For applications for Early Years 1 to Year 3, the decision to offer a place will be based upon satisfactory school reports and children will be assessed in the classroom by our academic staff.
Your child will be allocated to a class according to his/her date of birth. In accordance with the Ministry of Education regulations, child are required to be admitted to the Year Group for which they are age appropriate. To enter any Year Group your child must have satisfactorily completed the full previous equivalent academic year and you are required to submit school reports or certificates to this effect.
Once you have decided that Compass International School Doha is the right choice for your child, the next step is to submit an Application Form to us.
