Mentoring and Coaching in Education: A Guide to Coaching and Mentoring Teachers at Every Stage of their Careers

The book clearly defines the terms 'coaching' and 'mentoring' before looking at how coaching and mentoring are used in schools to develop teachers, and how these strategies can be used to help teachers to continue to develop to become confident classroom practitioners, as well as future leaders. The book also considers the key challenges and issues mentors and coaches might face. Each chapter explores each development phase of a teacher's learning journey, covering how coaches and mentors can offer support and provide a safe supportive environment to allow teachers to continue to grow and develop.
