Deutsche Schule Beirut, Beirut-Doha

The German School Beirut was established in 1954. It accommodated the German citizens living in Lebanon. It also aimed at integrating the German and Lebanese culture in one school. It was considered a "Begegnungsschule" where the students graduate with the German Abitur and the Lebanese Baccalaureate. It was first located in Jal el Bahr near the Riviera Hotel. In 1964 the school was relocated to Doha until 1977. Over the period of three years, from 1977 till 1980, the school relocated three times, due to the Civil War in Lebanon. In 1977 the school moved to Besançon, in 1978 to the ACS, and finally to Manara in the year 1980 where it remains till now. In 1985 the German Abitur was no longer offered and the Lebanese Brevet was the main degree that the students could acquire. In 1995 the Doha branch was reestablished as the main branch of the D.S.B.

The German School welcomes students from all over the world. It offers a variety of programs in order to meet the needs of each student.It offers its students the International Baccalaureate program.
