| Description: |
Support new and veteran principals through coaching-based professional development! How can a coach support a school leader in mastering the professional and emotional challenges of school leadership in a manner that has a positive impact on students?

An indispensable resource for improving principal retention, teacher satisfaction and student achievement, this ready reference contains:Real-life examplesReflective promptsPractical exercisesComprehensive resources, including worksheets, sample forms, and assessments |
| Synopsis: |
This book will addresses critical issues such as:- the importance of sustained, stable, and effective site leadership for school improvement - the growing shortage of qualified candidates for the headteachership- the inadequacy of traditional pre-service programs - the need for quality headteacher induction programs which include a mentoring or coaching component This book, while grounded in research and theory, will provide readers with practical skills and strategies for leadership coaching that are explicitly tied to the needs of headteachers. It will make sense of the often contradictory literature on coaching by promoting a new approach, that of "Blended Coaching," which recognizes that effective coaches move between facilitative and instructional approaches in their practice. |
