SCHOOL-BASED Coaching

"Each person holds so much power within themselves that needs to be let out. Sometimes they just need a little nudge, a little direction, a little support, a little coaching, and the greatest things can happen." - Pete Carroll

SCHOOL-BASED COACHING

“Everyone needs a coach. It doesn’t matter what the role…. we all need people who will give us feedback. That’s how we improve.”

 

Investing in School Staff: Transforming Outcomes

Schools thrive when their staff feel supported, valued, and inspired. Investing in well-being and professional growth isn’t just about ticking boxes—it’s a strategic decision that can uplift the entire school community. Coaching offers staff the tailored guidance they need to flourish, creating an environment where both educators and pupils can excel.

Why School-Based Coaching?

Are you looking to:

  • Boost Engagement and Morale? Help your staff feel motivated and appreciated.

  • Reduce Absenteeism and Stress? Equip your team with resilience strategies.

  • Retain Talented Staff? Create an environment where your best people want to stay.

  • Strengthen Pupil Outcomes? Empower educators to support students more effectively.

  • Encourage Innovation? Foster a culture of flexibility and adaptability.

    Or perhaps you want your team to:

  • Feel Valued and Supported: Build a positive, nurturing culture.

  • Maximise Potential Without Burnout: Achieve their goals without compromising well-being.

  • Lead Effectively: Develop skills to inspire and empower others.

With coaching, these aspirations become achievable.

Why Coaching Matters in Schools

When staff thrive, pupils succeed. Research consistently shows that staff well-being directly influences student outcomes. Burnout among teachers and leaders doesn’t just impact individuals; it ripples through the entire school community. Coaching addresses these challenges, building resilience and fostering an environment of positivity and growth.

Cost-Effective and Long-Term Impact

By reducing absenteeism and turnover, coaching saves schools money while creating a more cohesive, engaged team.

Aligned with Educational Goals

Coaching helps schools achieve broader objectives such as Ofsted readiness, leadership excellence, and compliance with mental health and well-being frameworks.

"My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humour and some style."

-Maya Angelou
