Qatar has a large Indian expat community .The parents prefer sending their kids to Indian schools . School seats for the Indian children living in Qatar are simply not enough . MES is one of the largest school .It has currently 8000 students when the its buildings were designed for 5000 students only - the same goes for Ideal Indian School with 6000 students instead of 2800 .
.
New Indian schools are needed very much .An official of the Education ministry promised new Indian Schools for 2017/18 year . But no more details about them .
As the Indian School Year starts traditionally not in September but in April - it looks like that many Indian kids in Qatar will be out of formal education .
No wonder that online schools are advertising themselves intensely at social pages nowadays . Home schooling is not unknown for Qatar expat community , either .
