Synopsis

School coaching is an increasingly popular school-change strategy, yet we have relatively few detailed pictures of actual coaching practice. This book provides an in-depth look at the practice of coaching in a small high school, and includes case studies, stories, tools, and artifacts from the life of the school. The authors identify and describe a set of “coaching habits” that foster instructional planning across the curriculum, distributed leadership, and the development of a strong professional learning community. Because effective coaching is always collaborative, the text looks at coaching from the perspectives of the coach and three of the teachers whom she coaches, as well as that of a school-based researcher. This guide to effective coaching: Focuses on “change coaching,” which encompasses school culture and organization, as well as curriculum content. Describes how coaching develops and changes in the life of one school over a period of 5 years. Provides examples and tools that will be invaluable to school coaches, administrators, district staff, staff developers, and organizations that support coaching.
