Coaching Core Skills – The philosophies and ideas behind coaching were brought to life and each delegate ended the day feeling more confident in what successful coaching is and the power it has within any organisation. ‘Clare’s passion for coaching was present throughout the day and she delivered a huge amount of tricky information, ideas and principles without overwhelming the group. The course atmosphere was relaxed and informal, allowing everyone to feel comfortable sharing and discussing ideas. For me as a teacher, the coaching philosophies shared will have significant impact both in my classroom practice, but also as a school leader.
