About the offering
01Established by QF in 2016, Renad Academy is Qatar’s first school dedicated exclusively to children with autism and the country’s leading specialist education provider in this field. The academy offers a nurturing and structured environment where children receive comprehensive academic and social support. Enrollment begins at age three following a formal diagnosis.
An expert multidisciplinary team, including teachers, psychologists, speech and language pathologists, occupational therapists, and behavior specialists work closely with families to implement personalized learning pathways. These pathways are tailored to meet each child’s individual education plan. Plans are regularly reviewed and updated to incorporate health, educational, and social care elements, ensuring a holistic and responsive approach. This is in partnership with the child’s ‘circle of support’ to help shape future aspirations.
Through this collaborative model, Renad Academy supports children with autism in developing the skills and confidence needed to lead more independent and fulfilling lives.
