Is coaching kept separate from teacher evaluation?

Yes. Coaching cycles are non-evaluative and visibly separate from summative evaluation, so teachers can be open with their coach. Developmental data does not feed the evaluation score.

How does the platform help coaching scale?

Structured multi-phase cycles, recurring cadence, contact-hour and dosage tracking, shared look-fors, and meeting logs let a few coaches support many teachers consistently — and let leaders see coverage at a glance.

The problem

Coaching works. Ad-hoc coaching doesn't.

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.

No record of who's been coached, on what, how often
Cycles fizzle out after the first meeting
Teachers won't open up if coaching feels like evaluation

Set a goal and shared look-fors

Meet on a recurring cadence — logged, not lost

Track contact hours and dosage over time

Close the cycle and show the growth

Coaching stays separate from evaluation.

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.
