The Newton Group of Schools was founded in 2006 in Doha, Qatar by Dr. Jabr Al-Noaimi and Mrs. Afaf K. Al-Moadhadi. The founders recognised a growing demand for British-style education that prepared students for global opportunities. The name ‘Newton’ was chosen to reflect the values of logic, scientific thinking, and academic excellence inspired by Sir Isaac Newton. The first campus began with a relatively small number of students, focusing on strong leadership, discipline, and high teaching standards.
