Coaching Professional Apprenticeship

Chafford Hundred Teaching School Hub are delighted to be offering a new 15-month Coaching Professional Apprenticeship

Coaching is a powerful way to develop self-awareness, confidence and trust within a professional environment.

  • Coaching promotes staff retention at all levels, provides a safe space for problem solving outside of the hierarchy of school-based line management and leads to better staff wellbeing overall.
  • Many school leaders support teams where coaching training is required. As staff progress through their career and take on new roles, this transition can be effectively managed with use of a coach to help them overcome common issues such as imposter syndrome, build confidence in our system leaders to reach their potential.
  • This programme will create a personally powerful experience for those taking part by looking at values and beliefs and what motivates us; some of the best evidence of coaching in education including the work of Sir John Whitmore, Dr Sarah Fletcher and Christian Van Nieuwerburgh; and importantly, how we get to bring this evidence and experience into our professional environment.
  • During the process and post qualification, participants will share their skills and create impact on staff development and wellbeing.

This is suitable for staff who are interested in working in a coaching role, but have no qualifications.  This programme is available to staff at all levels but may be of particular interest to those looking to develop their leadership skills.
