Outstanding Score in TIMMS 2019 Published: 1 July 2021 AWIS recognised for outstanding Maths and Science results in international benchmarking tests. In April 2021 we were delighted to receive a letter from Dr. Ibrahim bin Saleh Al Naimi, the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, congratulating AWIS on the outstanding scores achieved by our Year 5 students in the international TIMMS 2019 survey. TIMMS is short for "Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study", organised by the International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement. It is a standardised test administered to students across the globe, once every 4 years, to facilitate data-driven decision-making about educational systems. It has been running since 1995 for students in Years 5 and 9 (grades 4 and 8 in the US system), with Qatar first participating in 2007. The most recent survey was run in 2019, gathering comparative data on Year 5 students from 58 countries.

Explore job opportunities at our school for Class Teachers, Arabic & Islamic Teachers, Teaching Assistants, and Administration Staff. Discover job opportunities now! Job Opportunities AWIS is the hidden gem of schools in Qatar. We are fully committed to delivering excellence through an international education with the International Early Years Curriculum (IEYC) and the International Primary Curriculum (IPC). Our success is due to our team of committed and enthusiastic staff and our supportive international community. We provide a professional and welcoming work environment where all staff are supported and valued. Career development is widely available, and internal promotion actively encouraged. This is all supported by relevant professional development opportunities and mentoring. We welcome applications from inspirational and enthusiastic teaching and support staff who wish to shape lives. All current vacancies are displayed below. Please only apply for the vacancies shown. Class Teachers As a UK-style Primary school, our teaching staff mainly consists of classroom teachers supported by Teaching Assistants. Class Teachers will typically be native English speakers, and must hold a recognised UK teaching qualification (or equivalent) and with experience of the English National Curriculum. We recruit internationally, as well as from within Qatar. Suitably qualified candidates can be sponsored by the school. Regrettably, due to the high volume of applications, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. No teacher vacancies We are presently fully staffed for the foreseeable future. However, you are welcome to submit a speculative CV, in case the situation changes in the future. Arabic & Islamic Teachers We follow the curriculum prescribed by the Ministry of Education and Higher Education in Qatar. We teach Arabic, Islamic Studies and Qatar History, in both the Arabic and the English language. Our teachers must be fluent Arabic speakers, with a good command of the English language and an understanding of modern teaching methods. They must hold a relevant degree. We do not recruit internationally for these roles. No Arabic/Islamic teacher vacancies We are fully staffed with Arabic and Islamic teachers, so are not accepting applications at this time. Teaching Assistants Most classroom teachers are supported by a Teaching Assistant. Our Teaching Assistants must be fluent English speakers, with a good rapport with young children. We do not recruit internationally for these roles: some of the positions are taken by mothers of children in the school. Qualifications and experience are less important than a willingness to learn (under the supervision of the class teacher), a genuine interest in the development and wellbeing of children, and being a team player. No TA vacancies We are fully staffed with TA's, so are not accepting applications at this time.
