Safeguarding at Doha College

As Term 1 draws to a close at Doha College, we want to take a moment to thank you for your continuous support in prioritising the safety and well-being of our pupils. Your partnership is integral to maintaining the strong safeguarding culture that defines our community.

At Doha College, safeguarding is a shared responsibility, grounded in the principle that "it could happen here." This approach ensures that every member of our school community is protected, valued, and supported.

While we prepare for the holiday break, please rest assured that our commitment to safeguarding remains constant. If you have any concerns about the safety or welfare of a Doha College student during the holidays, you can reach us at safeguarding@dohacollege.com. This email address will be monitored throughout the break to address any urgent safeguarding matters.

We appreciate your understanding in using this contact only for emergencies, allowing us to respond effectively to critical issues as they arise.

Thank you for your continued trust and support, and we wish you a peaceful and enjoyable holiday period.

Annual Data Update Process - Reminder

As part of our annual data update process, all parents will have received emails today to verify their child(ren)'s information on record with us.

It is important to ensure that the school records are accurate and up to date for all students. We kindly request you to review the content of the email and respond by Tuesday, 17th December 2024.

Please note that a Google account is required to fill out this form, as we are collecting sensitive documents such as Passport and ID copies.

If your registered email address with us is not a Google account, you will need to create a Google account using your existing non-Google email address. You might have already done this previously, as it is required for accessing the Curriculum Google site.
