Performance Coaching For School Leaders

A required component of the leadership preparation program is performance coaching. Trained performance coaches are the key to ensuring that aspiring and developing leaders are proficient in leadership skills in real work, in real time and in real school environments.

Education Planners has developed a comprehensive framework to train performance coaches to meet the guidelines for “supervised residency of administrators” as required by the Georgia Professional Standards Commission. Education Planners will train qualified candidates to be effective performance coaches who will “demonstrate competencies in the knowledge, dispositions and performances for accomplished leadership” (Georgia PSC). Trained performance coaches will be able to:

  • Assess the candidate's needs/strengths
  • Assist in developing an Individual Induction Plan
  • Assist the candidate with developing short and long-term plans
  • Define instructional leadership and its standards
  • Ensure that the candidate understands how to align standards
  • Listen, probe and question

The framework for Education Planners’ Performance Coaching for School Leaders is organized around the core proposition that the most critical aspect of a school leader’s work is the continuous improvement of student learning. In preparing new administrators, it is imperative to include self-assessment, goal-setting and self-directed professional inquiry, and meaningful feedback.

Support from a trained performance coach will provide the school leader with specific feedback against clear, written performance criteria.

Upon successful completion of Performance Coaching for School Leaders, candidates will be able to:

  • Assist the candidate in meeting all standards required
  • Create an environment of trust to support the growth of the candidate
  • Know and practice research-based coaching skills
  • Use coaching skills to provide significant opportunities for candidates to synthesize and apply knowledge, practices and skills
  • Use communication skills to help the candidate develop self-reliance
