Doha - School Report Question and Answers
What is the climate for LGBT+ kids at this school? Are there resources they can draw upon? Does there appear to be any exclusionary behavior?
It is important to note that Qatar is a Muslim country and ASD must abide by the rules and regulations of the State of Qatar and the Ministry of Education and Higher Education. LGBTQ+ activities are considered to be immoral by local laws. - Sep 2023
Poor. The school has been saying they're working on diversity, equity, inclusion and justice, but it certainly doesn't include LGBTQIA students. They refused to even allow a rainbow poster to remain up in the MS or HS because local students and parents complained it's against Islam. Current families with LGBTQIA kids just tough it out or sometimes choose to leave (if their kid is transitioning) because the school (and Doha in general) will not openly support them. - Apr 2022
Because it is in Qatar I would imagine it would not be welcoming. - Jul 2019
