Qatar International School

Our curriculum is based upon the EYFS of England and Wales. The Foundation Stage curriculum is for children aged three to the end of the Reception year.  It is organised into six areas of learning, all of which are given equal status.

* Personal, Social and Emotional Development
* Communication, language and literacy
* Mathematical development
* Knowledge and Understanding of the World
* Physical Development
* Creative Development

We work towards the Early Learning Goals, whilst recognising the needs of our international student population.

Young children learn best when they are actively involved in their learning, we carefully plan activities as:

Well planned play is a key way in which young children learn with enjoyment and challenge through the Foundation Stage.

We plan our learning experiences around topics or cross curricular themes which allow children to develop skills across all 6 learning areas.

In Reception children have a more formalised timetable and have Quran and Arabic lessons in addition to being taught by class teachers.
