Creating a Coaching Culture in Your School

Coaching in education is becoming popular and schools that embrace coaching rave about its impact. What might be so wonderful about creating a coaching culture in your school? In this workshop we will examine what a coaching culture means and what impact it might have on a school. Then we will consider how a coaching culture can be created. Many answers to this question will be given, showing that there are ways to nurture a coaching culture that range from one person’s actions to a coordinated, whole school strategy. Participants will have a chance to dream and plan about their own school’s cultures.

Key questions:

What is a coaching culture? What is so great about it?

How is this different from the culture your school currently has?

What are some possible ways to create and nurture this culture?

What will you do next?
