A small bilingual British-curriculum school in Al Wakrah aimed primarily at Qatari and Arab families wanting English-medium teaching alongside the Ministry's Arabic, Sharia and Social Studies programme.

Amjad International Academy opened in 2018 under the local Amjad Academy group. Capacity is around 480 students across roughly 24 classes of 20, divided into Elementary, Intermediate and Secondary stages. The curriculum is the National Curriculum for England, taught bilingually with the Qatari national programme for Arabic-language subjects.

Public parent feedback is thin. The one detailed review on file is sharp, describing a family asked to withdraw two months after admission over an accreditation issue affecting non-Arabic students. Small school, short track record, limited independent voice. Worth visiting in person and asking direct questions about regulatory status before committing.

DB note: founded year is missing in the DB; external sources put the opening at 2018.
