NIS D- Ring

Principal's message

Welcome to Newton International School D Ring, where as Principal, I have been fortunate to witness our school evolve into the vibrant, inclusive community it is today, where we pride ourselves on fostering caring, collaborative, creative, and critical thinkers.

Our commitment to excellence is underscored by our accreditation from the British Schools Overseas (BSO) and the Qatar National Schools Accreditation (QNSA). These accreditations validate our dedication to providing a high-quality education. Moreover, we have been honored with the Gold Award by Dialogue Works for our outstanding work in implementing Philosophy for Children, a program that enriches both our staff and students.

Catering to children from Foundation One to Year Eight, we follow the British Curriculum. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to ensure that every child feels safe, valued, and ready to learn when they step into our school. We take pride in our ability to tailor our curriculum to meet the diverse needs and backgrounds of our students.

At Newton International School D Ring, we strive to maintain a balance between providing strong inclusive and pastoral care and achieving excellent academic results. This balance ensures that our children not only excel academically but also develop into well-rounded individuals with strong values and character.

As a school, we celebrate diversity and inclusivity, recognizing that every child has unique talents and strengths to offer. We take great pride in acknowledging and nurturing these talents, whether they be academic, artistic, or in other areas. Our strong values-based curriculum ensures that excellence is celebrated in all forms, encouraging our students to be the best they can be in every aspect of their lives.

Professional development is a cornerstone of our approach, and our teachers engage in a variety of opportunities to enhance their skills and knowledge. From Philosophy for Children to Talk for Writing and Little Wandle Phonics, our teachers are constantly striving to improve their practice for the benefit of our students.

Community involvement is also central to our ethos, with our student leadership team organizing a range of community events throughout the year. These events not only foster a sense of community within our school but also teach our students the value of giving back and making a positive impact on the world around them.

We are proud to be part of the Newton Group, working closely with Head Office and our neighboring schools to ensure that we provide a consistent, high-quality education across the group. Together, we are committed to sharing expertise and best practices to continuously improve the educational experience for all our students. I invite you to explore all that Newton International School D Ring has to offer and join us on our journey of excellence and growth.

Yours Sincerely,

Mrs. Pauline Penney
Principal
