Around 2000 students attend the school, which offers education from  \nage 3 to 18. Mayar employs over 230 teachers and has offered Cambridge Professional Development Qualifications (PDQs) since 2020. Currently Mayar runs two Cambridge PDQ programmes, in Teaching & Learning and Educational Leadership.  \nAbout Cambridge Professional Development Qualifications  \nDesigned to support school-based professional development, Cambridge PDQs are based on latest research and best practice in teaching, learning and leadership and combine innovative and reflective practice with critical engagement.  \nWorking with Cambridge, schools design their Cambridge PDQ programme to suit the context and needs of their candidates. Each Cambridge PDQ programme is comprised of Units or Modules, depending on the level. Candidates submit a portfolio of evidence to Cambridge for assessment. Successful completion leads to the candidate being awarded the Certificate or the Diploma.  \nThe Cambridge PDQ Programme Leader  \nThe Programme Leader, usually a senior member of staff at a school, is key to the success of a Cambridge PDQ course, overseeing programme design and delivery, coordinating mentors and monitoring progress. To become accredited, a Programme Leader completes an online course, delivered by Cambridge. They have continuous access to a wealth of resources and support.  \nCambridge PDQ in Educational Leadership  \nDesigned to increase leaders’ knowledge and understanding of successful leadership, this Cambridge PDQ will improve both quality of learning and teaching, and the development of their school. The programme covers key leadership theories, concepts and challenges with a focus on effective and reflective leadership practice.  \nDr Nadia Kharbat is General Director of Mayar International Schools and Cambridge PDQ Programme Leader. She describes her experiences of the Cambridge PDQ in Educational Leadership.  \n‘The Cambridge PDQ in Educational Leadership is an innovative qualification which enables school leaders to become more confident, responsible, reflective and engaged,’ says Dr Nadia Kharbat.‘The quality of the course has stretched and challenged our candidates’ leadership abilities. This, without a doubt, is the most important benefit of the programme.’  \nTen candidates enrolled on the most recent Educational Leadership PDQ at Mayar International Schools, seven taking the course in English and three in Arabic. As the school’s leadership and teaching staff are already well qualified (most hold PhDs or Master’s degrees), candidateselection is based ‘on their interest and vision for the future of our school,’ explains Dr Kharbat.‘Successful candidates want to become leaders with exceptional qualificationsand so their aim is not just to enrol on the programme but also to gain the highest possible score. As a result, all candidates for our most recent course came from our senior management team, including heads of department and even the school principal.’  \nContinued   \nCambridge Professional Development Qualifications: Educational Leadership continued  \nDesigning the programme  \nUnderpinning the success of a Cambridge PDQ is a  \nwell-designed programme, which is developed by the Programme Leader with support from Cambridge. Dr Kharbat began her programme with a series of weekly guided learning sessions, using Cambridge materials: ‘In these sessions we talked in more detail about the concept of educational leadership, discussed key theories and how to put these into practice, and also looked at leadership in specific contexts. I prepared presentations to support these discussions, and provided lists of recommended resources such as case studies, articles in journals and books, and academic papers.’  \nThroughout a Cambridge PDQ programme, which takes around fo","cbCairoLdYNAQVFx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairoLdYNAQVFx","pdf",864222,"English","# About Cambridge Professional Development Qualifications\n## The Cambridge PDQ Programme Leader\n## Cambridge PDQ in Educational Leadership\n## Designing the programme\n## Preparing for the assessment","[{\"question\":\"What is the Cambridge PDQ in Educational Leadership designed to improve?\",\"answer\":\"It aims to increase leaders’ knowledge and understanding of successful leadership, improving quality of learning and teaching and supporting school development.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the Cambridge PDQ programme support candidates during the course?\",\"answer\":\"Candidates receive personal mentoring from trained mentors and participate in guided learning sessions.
