MoEHE to establish new technical secondary school for girls next year
Tribune News Network Doha The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE) has announced its plans to establish the Qatar Technical Secondary School for Girls — Al Shamal, in the northern region of the country during the upcoming 2025-2026 academic year. In a statement, the ministry said this strategic step aims to enhance technical and vocational education opportunities for female students and provide a specialised learning environment to help prepare qualified national talents for the labour market. It added that this initiative reflects the ministry's strong belief in the importance of applied learning and its crucial role in equipping students with both technical and vocational skills. The MoEHE said the school will implement a balanced curriculum that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on training, aligned with the evolving demands of the national economy. The school will offer quality technical education in two main tracks: information technology and laboratory technician, in addition to the academic subjects prescribed for secondary school. According to the approved plan, the school will accept a maximum of 40 female students in the tenth grade in its first year. Registration for the 2025-2026 academic year is now open via the Maaref Public Service Portal on the Ministry of Education and Higher Education's website, for tenth grade students only. Applications are accepted in accordance with approved regulations, with priority given to the following categories: first, Qatari female students; second, daughters of Qatari women; third, daughters of citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council countries; and finally, female students born in Qatar and residing there. All applicants must meet the academic and health requirements for admission, which include passing admission tests and a personal interview, as well as submitting an official medical certificate confirming that the student is free of chronic diseases that might affect her participation in practical activities and training workshops. The admissions portal will be activated as of June 25, 2025, and official registration procedures will be completed by the start of the new academic year. Parents are also required to sign a declaration approving the student's transition to the new educational environment and to adhere to the ministry's student assessment policy and registration procedures. The opening of the new school comes as part of the Ministry of Education and Higher Education's efforts to meet the educational needs of the outer regions and provide specialized educational options that support the national drive to diversify secondary education pathways. This is based on the results of opinion polls conducted by the ministry with students and parents in the region, which revealed a growing desire to provide technical education for girls in the northern region. It's worth noting that Qatar currently hosts eight specialized schools, including three schools for girls: Qatar Technical Secondary School for Girls, Qatar Banking Studies and Business Administration School for Girls, and the new school in the north. The ministry affirms that this trend reflects its ongoing commitment to expanding vocational and technical education opportunities for students across the country, in line with the priorities of Qatar National Vision 2030, which support a knowledge-based economy and empower national human resources, especially women, to play an active role in comprehensive development.
