Challenging perceptions of the lesson observation
This report examines some of the current theory and practice around the lesson observation and re-ignites the debate surrounding its strengths and pitfalls. Has the time come for schools to consign the lesson observation to the past and instead explore some new techniques for improving and sharing professional skills?
Using coaching to drive school improvement
Effective strategies for improving teaching need to be based on evidence-informed research. They must also focus on the development of pedagogy and promote collaborative professional learning though structured enquiry. One way to link these key features is through the practice of coaching.
This eBook guide considers why coaching is important, how schools can develop a coaching culture, and the different ways coaching can be used to impact on the school workforce and improvement.
