About ABQ Education
We operate 3 international schools in Oman. We offer personalised, engaging learning in a caring multicultural setting.
The history of ABQ schools starts with the esteemed Azzan Bin Qais International School – a pioneer and iconic presence in the Omani private education landscape.
Established in 1990, it is truly an embodiment of transformation and the exciting development of Oman as a country and its education system.
Azzan Bin Qais School in Bawshar was acquired by Al Omania Education in 2009, followed by a significant expansion and upgrade of the campus. Al Omania continued its commitment to the education sector by launching As Seeb International School, a state-of-the-art facility, in 2012. The third leg of the growth strategy was the acquisition of Sohar International School – the largest private school in the Batinah region. Sohar International School moved into its new world-class, purpose-built campus in August 2019.

Given the stability and maturity of our operation and to reinforce the growth strategy, ABQ Education Group produced the first true school operator model in Oman – The ABQ Way. The model assures a consistent and robust framework for all academic and non-academic activities in each of our schools. The group has invested significantly in resources to develop a best-in-class educational philosophy and delivery model.
ABQ Schools are shaping the future with their revolutionary approach to learning. With its impressive growth trajectory, ABQ is now the largest private school operator in Oman and rated as the best Cambridge schools in the country.
