Research on coaching

This is just a short post about the latest study on coaching which finally shows a link between coaching and student achievement.  Most studies in the past have failed to establish a correlation between the student learning and coaching or haven’t even attempted to do so. This one is one of the first to do this.

Some key highlights of the study to think about

  • Reading gains are greatest in schools where teachers receive a larger amount of coaching.
  • The PLC impacts coaching
  • “The teachers who got the most coaching were new teachers, teachers committed to the school and the reform model, and those who were found, through baseline surveys, to be more likely to initiate work-related interactions with other teachers.”
  • The schools where the most coaching took place were smaller in size

As a coach, how do you measure your impact on student learning (formally or informally)? Do principals hold you accountable for student change?
