Gaining Trust and Transformation in Private Schools with Sharjah Private School Authority’s Ziad Shatat - S2E21

Struggling schools have become beacons of excellence in Sharjah, and behind such transformation has been a new, exciting, dynamic organisation called SPEA!

The Sharjah Private Education Authority is creating collaboration and growth, thanks to our guest this week, Ziad Shatat, who’s their Director of Continuous Development.

Join us this week to explore how SPEA handles such a diverse educational landscape, builds trust with school leaders, and creates human-led tech experiences.

This episode covers

• Technology adoption in Sharjah schools accelerating as a result of Covid
• Raising education quality through collaboration, trust-building, and supporting schools, rather than passively monitoring them
