Ministry Of Education control the education in Qatar. There are two types of
schools in Qatar, public schools and private schools. The public schools are
free for everybody. It is usually an Arabic school and by the end of each
course and year you get a percentage on your exams. However, the private schools
cost some fees so it’s not free. There are two kinds of public schools; there
is the American school and the British school. The American school system is
kindly the same as the Arabic school system; at the end of each year you get a
percentage. However, the British system schools are much more different. You need to
do the IGCSE, AS level and A level or International Baccalaureate (IB) to
finish high school education and get into university. The education system in Qatar is divided into three parts, the first part is primary education it’s a 6-year
