The Science department’s KS3 curriculum follows the Exploring Science Scheme with the Biology, Chemistry and Physics content being taught in blocks. The pupils then follow the International GCSE Edexcel specification. In Year 10 and 11 pupils have the option of choosing two Science disciplines to take at GCSE. Last year, we had our first cohort of Year 11 pupils sitting their i/GCSE examinations.

Sherborne Qatar School for Girls, a STEM School, opened in a new purpose-built school building in January 2021 on a brand-new site near Doha Festival City, Qatar. The school is for girls from Pre-School to Year 12 and is marketed equally to local pupils and expats, but the majority of girls comes from the local community.
This is in the best traditions of British education and is the educational philosophy behind the girls’ school.
In order to achieve this vision, we are seeking to appoint enthusiastic and innovative teaching professionals to join our school and help our Headmistress develop our ethos inside and outside of the classroom.
