Hands On Heads Literacy Coaching
Dear Principals,
I've uploaded a short training to help literacy leaders and Heads of English get teacher buy-in- this is for them.
If your 5/6s are doing something completely different than the rest of the school, this is for you.
If your 7/8/9s English teams are still working in silos, this is for you.
If you’re doing all the talking in your planning sessions and meetings, this is for you.
If you're carrying the weight of whole-school literacy improvement on your own, this is for you.
If your literacy strategy depends on you reminding everyone what to do (and doing it for them), this is for you.
If you're leading literacy but struggling to create consistency across your school, this is for you.
If you're leading literacy but overwhelmed by competing school priorities, this is for you.
If you’re still not seeing evidence of teacher collaboration and collective responsibility, this is for you.
In this training I teach your leaders how to establish teacher connections and consistently lead sustainable whole-school literacy improvement.
To your literacy success,
“Through working with Amanda, I realised that a coaching approach to middle leadership aligns perfectly with my values. In coaching sessions, Amanda demonstrates how to provoke deep reflection, guides through strategic questioning and seeks to understand the school’s context and vision. She willingly shares her own knowledge and experience to support and guide you in achieving your literacy goals.
Through Amanda’s guidance, I am beginning to use these coaching principles, and have been able to lead new learning, and whole-school change, in a way that empowers teachers.”
