Description:
Dawn Brookhart will provide professional development and learning focusing on the critical components of creating the conditions and modeling the expectations necessary to enhance student learning through Student-Focused Coaching. The content will be grounded in the principles outlined in the book Instructional Leadership in Student-Focused Coaching: Creating Effective Systems. The training will provide practical insights and strategies for administrators, coaches, and educators.
Administrators often struggle with balancing supervision and evaluation, which can create an imbalance in their role as instructional leaders. This session highlights how coaching empowers administrators to model their expectations for teaching and learning, rather than directing them as traditional managers. Through a collective leadership model, defined levels of autonomy help build trust and collaboration, not only between the coach and administrator, but also with the instructional staff. Together, the coach and administrator move the model forward, with teachers leveraging the coach’s services and utilizing the administrator’s instructional support to improve student learning. Participants will engage in collaborative conversations and immersive learning experiences to understand what it takes to lead complex change as instructional leaders in schools.
