Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone knew where the teacher accommodation is for Doha British School? I'll be getting a one-bed flat and have been told it's "three star" but have also heard it's in a really run-down area (Umm Ghuwailina or Al Mansoura). Does anyone actually know where the accommodation is? Any ideas at all would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, and I'd just like to say I'm loving the informative (and sometimes hilariously blunt) threads about Doha life. The cynicism is getting me really excited about the move

Both those areas are shit holes but you'll fit in fine if you're from Newcastle , it'll be home from home .

Waaaaaaaallsend through and through, me (the posh bit, mind).

I am also due to start here next academic year and would like to know a bit more about the accommodation too as this is the aspect if the job I'm most concerned about.

Blimey, what a small world. Compared to Battle Hill though everywhere else is the posh bit.

Hello everyone.

My partner and I are also due to start next academic year in DBS. Any idea about the accommodation?

Thanks!
