Pedagogical Coaching Programme

This training programme is designed to equip leading practitioners with coaching skills, tools and resources to support colleagues in setting goals to improve pupil outcomes, and provide non-judgemental and developmental feedback to help them achieve these.

Pedagogical Coaching is based on a partnership of equals where the goals are co-decided. It is dialogic, developmental and happens in an ongoing cyclical manner.

Participants will be supported to create a vision for coaching in their setting and will be prepared to implement this with supporting tools and resources.

  • Cultivate a Pedagogical Coaching culture in your school based on leading research and best international practice
  • Prepare mentors for the implementation of the Early Career Framework 
  • Improve outcomes for pupils, particularly the most disadvantaged, through effective teacher development
  • Provide opportunities for experienced practitioners to share their expertise, supporting the development of others and themselves
