Description

The report identifies conditions that supported successful coaching implementation in the Puerto Rico pilot: "Fewer classes assigned to the coach", "Commitment from school leaders to the coaching work", and "Enthusiasm from teachers about the coaching work". These conditions emerged from the pilot's evaluation of coaches, teachers, and leaders and informed leaders' proposals for new academic structures giving participating educators fewer classes for professional development time.
