Oryx International School - Barwa City will continue our Mission to deliver an engaging, value rich, broad and balanced "British International Education Programme' to the children of the employees of Qatar Airways. Delivered by highly qualified and experienced UK Teachers.
As the school moves into examination programmes for secondary years the students will follow IGCSE /GCSE using a variety of examination boards including Cambridge and Edexcel.
After IGCSE/GCSE’s from the age of 16 - 18, the school will offer ‘A’ level programmes which will qualify them to enter universities all over the world.
In the first year of operation we will open our first Foundation Stage 1 / Nursery Class, as well as secondary classes up to Year 10 (commencement of IGCSE examinations). Year 12 will also open if there is sufficient demand. At least 10 students will be required to start a range of courses and make these viable for success.
