History※
Sherborne was established in Qatar in 2009 at the "invitation of the Supreme Education Council." A member of the ruling family, "Abdullah bin Ahmed Al Thani," had recommended the school to the council. It was the first Sherborne branch established outside the United Kingdom. Colin Niven was the founding principal.
In 2021, Sherborne Senior relocated from its site in Bani Hajer, to a new site by the mall of qatar in Al Rayyan, Doha. Starting from September 2024, the sherborne senior school will begin to accept students aged 4-18, within the same site, while the Sherborne Prep will become a new, boys-only school.
