The Supreme Education Council (SEC) has raised the salaries of all the Qatari teachers working with the Independent Schools. A decision in this regard was taken at an executive committee meeting of the Council held in January this year, which was chaired by H H Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al Missned, according to Al Sharq.
About 1,500 Qatari teachers at the Independent Schools- male and female- will now get a hike of QR2,600 each in their monthly salaries, the paper said.
Announcing the hike, Sheikha Al Mahmoud, the Minister of Education and SEC Secretary General said, the salary hike would motivate more nationals to join the Independent Schools.
The move reflects the policy of the Qatari government to cultivate local talents, she added.
Sabah Al Haidoos, director of the Education Institute at SEC said, the salary hike was introduced following a proposal submitted by the Institute, after a review of the salary stricture of the Qatari teachers.
The Institute found that they were being paid less compared to the Qatari staff in other sectors, she noted. About 50 per cent of the existing teachers at the Independent Schools are Qataris, she added.
The hike will come to effect with retrospective effect from December last year, the paper said.

Stop drinking our water, using our cheap electricity...
We pay our people what we like, we don't care about your stupid foreigners....
Get the fuck out of Qatar.. We don't need you...
If the foreigners left then
If the foreigners left then your country would be left to the cats and dogs, nothing would work here except the wind..
You cant clean your own houses, pump your own oil, Qtel would be defunct, you see Qataris building houses? Running banks?
Your people cant even educate themselves, without us you would be a buncha ignorant, dust covered sheep herders and pearl divers.
Look around, YOU NEED US MORE THAN WE NEED YOU.
Get real loser
I'd like to see a bunch of
I'd like to see a bunch of these village idiots serving burgers at McD's personally. I'm sure they could screw that up, like everything else they touch.
one of the worst
one of the worst way to retaliate workers is by accusing falsely. these are being done on delebarate account. only to be seen as common practice in places like this. can you please let us know how far this website reaches. hope the olypimcs is over for the country of big time. lets not confuse with the olympics and the culture. here the culture has nothing to with the olympics or any sorts of sports. everything is being done for the money by the money. god money always keeps ugly. how can they ban the site?
Qatar sucks
This is the funniest thing I've read all year. WE know you don't care about us "stupid foreigners". That's why all the foreigners hate towel heads and everything they represent.
Qatar is the most hypocrital country on earth. How can you justify treating people like shit and then pray every friday? You call youselves Muslims? Just wait to judgement day when you all rot in hell you lazy ignorant, uneducated, baboons. Because that's where your all going for your useless contribution towards society.
As someone said you do need foreigners or your country will turn to shit, even worse then the state it is now. I would love to see all foreigners leave Qatar so you useless shits have to fend for yourselves.
No more sitting on your ass drinking coffee at starbucks all day - if you don't need foreigners why on earth do you copy EVERYTHING from the west? Look around you, you useless idiots coudn't come up with an idea or a plan if it meant your life.
You should be embarrassed to be a Qatari!!!!!!!
