Parent's Handbook

Our Admissions
Eadad International Academy has a transparent admissions policy to ensure all applicants are treated fairly. All students are required to complete our assessment procedure prior to being offered a place.
-
Students from all nationalities are welcome to apply. EIA gives priority to siblings of current students. Applicants who pass the test will be offered a place or will remain in the waiting list. When a place becomes available in the School, all candidates in the list are considered. If a student fails an entrance assessment the School will not reassess until the next academic year.
-
Family Applications - If your application is for more than one child, each child will need to pass the assessment or interview for their application to be successful. Not all family members will be guaranteed places.
-
Information Provision - Parents/Guardians must ensure they have provided all the relevant information in their application, including details of behavioural, social or academic support needs. If information is withheld and Eadad International Academy is unable to meet your child’s educational and/or social/behavioural needs, we reserve the right to withdraw the application/School place.
-
Age Groups - Students will only be admitted to the appropriate year group by age. If your child is currently studying in a School in Qatar, please refer to the Ministry of Education’s rules for transferring students.
-
Medical Records - Eadad International Academy requires current and accurate information regarding your child’s medical requirements and that you update the School, should the circumstances change. We require records of previous medical treatments, allergies and vaccination records on registration.
-
Previous School Reports - All students joining Year 2 and above and transferring from Schools outside of Qatar are required to provide a copy of the previous Year End full School report, together with any interim reports issued. To comply with the Ministry of Education’s requirements, please ensure the report includes the official stamp of the School.
Students will only be accepted into the same year group, or progressive year group as appropriate and in conjunction with the Ministry of Education’s equivalency table. Should there be a discrepancy between the year group offered and the year group that the Ministry of Education will accept the student into, the offer of a place will be withdrawn.

Transferring from a School in Qatar
Students transferring from another School within Qatar are required to provide the existing School with confirmation of acceptance into Eadad International Academy, together with our Code. Students will only be accepted into the same year group or progressive year group as appropriate and in conjunction with the Ministry of Education’s equivalency table.
