Non-evaluative coaching cycles with cadence and dosage tracked for every teacher.
Instructional coaching is the single highest-leverage move for both instruction and retention, but in most districts it's untracked, inconsistent, and impossible to see. Some teachers get weekly support; others get none, and no one can tell.
The research is clear (Kraft & Gilmour): developmental support only works when it's visibly walled off from the summative score. A teacher's coaching conversations never feed their evaluation, so they can actually be honest with their coach.
Anchor each cycle to a concrete goal and observable look-fors.
Recurring meetings with contact-hour tracking, the dose that drives results.
Lightweight check-ins tied to the cycle, not a separate notes graveyard.
Open a cycle straight from an observation focus area.
Drafted summaries and next steps so coaches stay present in the conversation.
Leaders see who's being coached, how often, and where the gaps are.
