No matter how long it's been since you last stepped through our iconic red metal gates, DESS holds a special place in the hearts of many, filled with cherished memories. We invite all former students and staff who were once part of the 'DESS Community' to reconnect with us.

Stay updated on our latest news, initiatives, and key events by staying in touch with DESS. We're eager to hear about your journey since your time with us, whether here in Qatar or elsewhere in the world.

We look forward to reconnecting with you and building a strong DESS Alumni community together.

As an ex-pupil or staff member, there are various opportunities to remain connected with our school. We welcome guest speakers and are open to organising school assemblies and events where alumni can share their expertise and passions with our current students.

If you find yourself in Doha or plan to visit, we'd be delighted to welcome you back to DESS. Please inform our school secretary of your availability.

We look forward to reconnecting with you and building a strong DESS Alumni community together.

HEAR FROM OUR ALUMNI

Some of our alumni recently returned to DESS to speak with our Year 8 Student Management Group about what life at DESS looks like and how their time here prepared them for their next steps. This short film shares their reflections on the friendships, lessons, and experiences that shaped them, and how the values they developed at DESS continue to guide them beyond the classroom.

Watch the film to see how every DESS journey helps build confidence, connection, and a lifelong love of learning.
