Team Coaching

CLS provides coaching with immediate feedback to PLCs - teacher teams, building teams, and district leadership teams across the nation. While many PLCs and teacher teams analyze data, they may or may not take action based on effect data, or they may not know how to change course based on cause data (adult behaviors, including administrative conditions and instructional strategies used by teachers). Many districts have challenges with scheduling, structures, and creating dedicated time for teachers to focus on the instructional process, or time may be spent on other factors that may not impact student performance. In some cases, buildings and districts may experience challenges focusing on capitalizing on successes, supporting adult learning, or creating focus based on student and adult learning needs.

What is Team Coaching?

There are numerous benefits to teacher, building and district teams receiving continual feedback and coaching. Over time, teams improve student outcomes through refined teacher collaboration. The CLS Associate provides school-wide and system-wide feedback for strengths and challenges of PLC teams. The team process is refined while maximizing teacher team time.

The teams receive just in time professional development in context of daily teacher work. All teams appreciate feedback especially from an outside source. The feedback focuses on commendations and opportunities for continued growth. Most importantly, the team(s) build collective efficacy improving the culture of building and district. Moreover, time is saved by teachers and administrators by changing from minutes of meetings to the four-line e-mail – learning, assessment, intervention, enrichment.
