It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
Doha Academy opened in September 2000 on the site that is now Doha Academy Salwa. The school is privately owned and administered by a Board of Directors chaired by Sheikha Aisha Bint Faleh Al Thani, who is the founder. In 2014, expanding numbers led to the opening of a purpose-built campus in Al-Waab for EYFS, primary, and secondary education. Doha Academy Salwa forms part of a group that offers a blended curriculum combining the National Curriculum for England, the Cambridge International curriculum, and the Qatar National curriculum. Salwa and Waab campuses have earned Qatar National Schools Accreditation (QNSA) since 2022, and NEASC full accreditation was achieved in November 2022.
Doha Academy Salwa is a small, welcoming school in Mamoura with a positive, vibrant atmosphere. The campus is organized into four blocks with administrative, primary and secondary sections, and from Year 6 upward girls and boys are in separate classrooms and spaces; the school uses a blended curriculum with English as the main medium of instruction. It offers co-curricular activities and after-school clubs to broaden learning opportunities. Community events have included Garangao celebrations as CSR initiatives and World Autism Awareness Day in 2023, along with National Identity-focused events and student achievement ceremonies in recent years.
A formal PTA is not publicly documented on the Doha Academy Salwa site. A Parents – Portal exists for parent–teacher communication via the iSAMS system. No public list of PTA committees, meetings, or PTA-led activities is visible on the site. The school publishes calendars and news about events and student achievements that sometimes involve parent participation. Community initiatives and cultural events organized by the Al-Faleh Educational Holding group—such as Quran competitions and national identity shows—also shape family engagement.
