Royal Grammar School Guildford Qatar Receives Prestigious White Flag Award from the Ministry of Education and Higher Education

The Royal Grammar School Guildford Qatar (RGSGQ) is proud to announce that it has been awarded the White Flag Award by the Ministry of Education and Higher Education. This recognition stands as a testament to our commitment to providing a safe, nurturing, and compliant learning environment where students can flourish both academically and personally.

The White Flag Award is a distinguished honor that highlights schools which demonstrate the highest standards of health, safety, and safeguarding measures. It recognizes institutions that maintain zero violations and zero penalties, uphold quality parent relationships, and demonstrate a strong commitment to regulatory compliance, safety, and ethical standards in school operations. For us at RGSGQ, this achievement not only validates our daily efforts but also reflects our core values of scholarship, courage, inclusivity, integrity, respect, and collaboration. We believe that a thriving education goes beyond academics—it begins with the assurance that every child is learning in a secure and supportive environment.

As one of the top British schools in Qatar, RGSGQ has always placed student wellbeing at the heart of its mission. Safety, respect, and a culture of responsibility underpin every aspect of school life. From our youngest learners in the Early Years to our ambitious Sixth Form students, every child benefits from an environment where they feel protected, valued, and inspired to achieve their best.

“The White Flag Award is a reflection of the collective dedication of our entire school community. It reassures parents and families that RGSGQ is not only committed to academic excellence, but also to the highest standards of care and safety for every child. This achievement belongs to our staff, our students, and our families who continuously support the school’s vision,” said Mrs. Fiona Scott, RGSGQ Principal.

This award further strengthens RGSGQ’s reputation as a trusted and forward-thinking school, grounded in the proud traditions of the Royal Grammar School Guildford in the UK, while embracing the rich cultural context of Qatar.

At RGSGQ, we remain steadfast in our goal: to provide world-class education within a safe and inclusive setting, empowering students to become confident, compassionate, and future-ready leaders. The White Flag Award is a milestone worth celebrating—and a promise to continue striving for the very best for our community.
