Coaching changes people, and people change schools. This two-day workshop gives your team protected time to step back, clarify your vision for coaching, and build a teacher support system that truly works.
Over two days, we walk through the full SIMPLE Blueprint for Instructional Coaching™ framework, connecting each letter to the daily work of leaders, coaches, and teachers. Nicole S. Turner begins with the big picture so everyone can see how coaching, professional learning, and leadership align. Then we slow down, moving through each letter one at a time and pausing for honest reflection and team dialogue along the way.
As we move through the framework, we examine how to set a clear vision for coaching, invite teachers into the work in ways that build trust, measure coaching impact without turning it into evaluation, and provide layered support—from classroom foundations to instructional execution. By the end of day two, your team will use the SIMPLE Blueprint for Instructional Coaching™ to set priorities, clarify roles, and create a practical implementation plan to use immediately.
