COACHING PROTOCOLS- What is unique? What the coach does during school visits. Meet the principal, HOD and observe a Grade 2 EFAL lesson. Ask for relevant books and records, including a short summary of lesson preparation, tracker, personal file and a few learners’ books. Check the walls (especially display boards) in relation to the lesson conduced. Carefully watch the teacher conduct the lesson and refer to Core Methodologies Check and sign learners’ work.

COACHING PROTOCOLS- What is unique? How does a coach help monitor teacher progress. The coach writes remarks in the Evaluation Form The coach and the teacher discuss the remarks. The coach gives advice, makes suggestions and recommendations. The teacher writes her own remarks and her way-forward. They both go through the remarks made at the previous lesson to check improvement. Each teacher has a personal observation book wherein the coach pastes a copy of the Evaluation Form. The coach conducts demos at the school-based workshop after each visit.

COACHING RECORDS What records do I keep? - Names of schools allocated to me - Names of teachers’ and statistics per school, including SMTs - Learners’ statistics (in a particular grade) - Teachers’ scheduled and follow-up visits - Observation Books - Curriculum coverage records How do I know if teachers are progressing or not? - I use the Observation book to check the teachers’ progress. - Learners’ response during the lesson - Performance during Assessments - Learners’ books also give a true reflection.

COACHING OUTCOMES ‘Critical friend’ relationship firmly established and operational Coach recognised as professional presence in schools Teachers more skilled at teaching reading Teachers know how to manage their classrooms (including reading resources)
