Doha, Qatar: Head of School, ACS Doha Dr. Susan Borden has said that this year the school will foon equipping students with adaptable skills, a global perspective, and a strong sense of self.

“By fostering curiosity and embracing new experiences, we'll empower each student to push their boundaries and reach their full potential,” said Borden. Speaking about the concept of readiness shaping this academic year, she said:“Readiness, to me, encompasses more than just academic excellence. It's about instilling the confidence to face challenges head-on and the willingness to explore uncharted territories.”

Borden said that the ACS Doha community is a vibrant tapestry of cultures, ideas, and perspectives.“Our community fosters a sense of belonging and encourages collaboration, creating an environment where students can learn from one another and develop a deep respect for diversity. More importantly, the globalisation of major businesses makes cross-cultural communication an essential skill.”

Borden said that the exceptional sense of community and commitment to readiness at ACS Doha truly resonated with her.“The school's dedication to nurturing curiosity, fostering strengths, and preparing students for the future aligns perfectly with my educational philosophy. I am excited to lead a diverse community of students and educators toward a year of growth and discovery.”

She said that experienced principals bring a wealth of knowledge and a deep understanding of our school's values.“Their transition into new roles reflects our commitment to consistency and growth. They will play a pivotal role in ensuring that our students receive a holistic education that focuses not only on academics but also on character development, creating a seamless and nurturing experience for all,” said Borden.

This year, she said: We're encouraging students to venture beyond their comfort zones by embracing sports, arts, and design. These avenues provide platforms for creativity, teamwork, and personal growth. Whether it's discovering a new passion in the arts, honing athletic skills, or exploring innovative design projects, our students will have the chance to make unforgettable memories and develop skills that extend beyond the classroom.”

“I am excited to embark on this journey with the ACS Doha community, and I am committed to fostering an environment of readiness and growth. Together, let's make this year a remarkable one, full of achievements and meaningful connections,” said Borden.
