THE 10 BEST INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS IN QATAR 2018 T R “We want to be a global leader in providing accessible, experiential, progressive learning experiences that prepare students for academic success at the primary, intermediate, secondary and post-secondary education levels.” Established in 2006, Qatar Canadian School, now Blyth Academy Qatar is a renowned international school that embraces diversity, celebrates differences in cultures and engages students in their learning. Blyth th Academy is a global leader in providing students from Junior KG to 12 grade with safe, transformative, experiential learning opportunities. Blyth Academy Qatar is known for its diverse educational environment with students from 51 nations enriching the experience for all students to function in a global society. Graduates of Blyth are equipped to pursue post-secondary studies in Canada and internationally. The Inception story After several years of exploring and expanding the Alberta Programs of Study, the school applied for accreditation from the Ministry of Education, Alberta Canada. In July of 2016, the school was acquired by Blyth Academy headquartered in Toronto, Ontario. Blyth Education has been delivering quality education for over 30 years in Canada and abroad. In the session 2016-2017, Blyth received accreditation status from the Ministry of Education of Alberta, and in 2018-2019 Blyth was elevated to Tier 3 accreditation. Today BA continues to serve its learning community under the direction of the Ministry of Education, Qatar in addition to operations as an Alberta Accredited International School. With a current enrolment of approximately 390 students, Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12, the school’s vision is “To create, foster, maintain, and act as a learning environment that embraces the curricula, pedagogy, and interactions that develop compassionate, intelligent and creative problem solvers for our global future.” The facility is now filled with a diverse population with many students from employees of CNAQ and UCQ. However, the student body is becoming increasingly more diverse and includes a small number of local students. The school continues to grow in popularity and functions at capacity. A Rainbow of Offerings Using the Alberta Education Program of Studies that is modified and augmented by the programs mandated by the Qatari MoEd., BA offers academic programs to students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12 to help them have an overall development. The complementary timetable addresses local programming requirements and options, including: Arabic Language studies, Islamic Studies and Qatar History courses coupled with specialized options for CTF (e.g. Academic Literacy, Business Literacy, Theatre Arts, Nutritional Literacy, and Digital Literacy) in the Junior High and a series of bundled CTS Modules for the options in the Senior High (e.g., Business Foundations, computer studies, French and many online options are offered).
