Abstract: Teacher quality is one of the most important factors that contributes to student success. There is a growing body of research that points to coaching as an effective way to support teacher growth. As such, coaching is becoming more prevalent in schools and districts in the U.S., and districts are increasingly using federal, state, and local funds to support coaches and coaching programs. This report provides insights based on a national survey of coaches, teachers, and administrators currently engaged in coaching. From this survey, the authors have identified several recommendations for the adoption and sustainability of high-quality coaching. In this report, the authors share findings on coach workload, the coach-teacher relationship, the use of technology in coaching, professional support for coaches, and funding for coaches. It is promising that 83 percent of respondents to the national survey are engaged in coaching in their school or district. Given that coaching is increasingly common, the authors focused on opportunities to improve the value and impact of coaching, such as managing coach workload, increasing the duration and frequency of coach time with teachers, and supporting teachers in using technology for student learning. For many of these recommendations, professional development for coaches can help.
