Doha - School Report Question and Answers
What services are provided for speakers of English as a second language at this school? Please describe your experience with these services, if applicable.
ESL support provided in elementary only. Most second language, non-Arabic speakers reach proficiency and need only a few semesters of support. Many locals (who lack a solid foundation in their mother tongue of Arabic) struggle to achieve solid command of English, despite having only gone to English medium schools. This seems to be mostly the result of their not integrating more with other nationalities outside of school hours (they go home and speak Arabic the rest of the day), so they don't utilize their English skills outside of school much at all. - Apr 2022
