FREE WEBINAR

Safeguarding in an international school context comes with challenges that are not always covered by a single national framework.

Families move between countries. Staff are recruited internationally. Records may need to follow pupils across borders. And when a safeguarding concern is raised, there is often very little time to work out what happens next.

Join Z Professional Development for a free 45-minute online session exploring the safeguarding challenges that can surface most often in international schools.

We will look at:

• Why common safeguarding concerns can be missed in international settings
• Recruiting safely when references cross borders
• What effective record keeping looks like when families move mid-year
• Where inspection findings most commonly land
• What to do in the first hour after a disclosure

Who should attend?
Principals, DSLs and Deputy DSLs, Heads of Pastoral Care and Safeguarding Governors.

📅 Monday, 7 September 2026
⏰ 3:00–3:45 PM UAE Time
💻 Online | Free to attend

If you work in an international school, this is an opportunity to reflect on whether your safeguarding arrangements are prepared for the realities of an international community.

As the first day of the new school year comes to an end, we hope it has been a positive and productive one for educators and school leaders.

The first day sets the tone for the year ahead. It is a time to reconnect, build relationships, establish routines and create an environment where everyone can thrive.

Here’s to a successful year of learning, growth and positive impact.

Wishing all schools, leaders and educators a fantastic year ahead!

Are schools rethinking how technology supports learning?

From the 2026–27 academic year, UAE schools will place greater emphasis on books, notebooks and handwriting in four core subjects: Arabic, English, mathematics and science.

The change follows concerns about how intensive device use may affect writing, reading, language development and concentration.

Importantly, technology is not disappearing from classrooms. The focus is on using digital devices where they provide a clear educational benefit, while recognising the value of more traditional approaches to learning.

For educators and school leaders, it raises an important question:

Are we using technology because it improves learning, or simply because it is available?

At Z PD (Z Professional Development), we don't just "deliver" training. We partner with you to make sure these leadership strategies actually work in your specific school and your specific hallways.
