Targeted, in-school support to improve teaching, strengthen practice, and raise student outcomes
If you’re looking to move beyond one-off CPD and create sustained improvement across your department, this coaching model provides practical, tailored support where it matters most—your classrooms.
I work alongside MFL teams to identify key priorities, refine classroom practice, and support teachers in making meaningful, lasting changes.
What This Looks Like in Practice
Each coaching day is tailored to your department, but typically includes:
Understanding Your Context
Initial discussion to identify priorities and focus areas
Alignment with department and whole-school goals
Lesson Visits and Insight Gathering
Informal, supportive observations across the department
Focus on agreed areas (e.g. routines, formative assessment, retrieval, engagement)
Focused Feedback and Discussion
Professional dialogue with the Head of Department
Clear identification of strengths and next steps
Practical, manageable recommendations
The Impact
Departments I work with typically see:
Increased student confidence in speaking and participation
More consistent classroom practice across the team
Improved retention of key language
Greater clarity and confidence among teachers
Practical strategies that reduce workload
Who This Is For
This is particularly effective for:
Departments looking to improve consistency across teaching
Teams focusing on routines, retrieval, or engagement
Heads of Department wanting structured, practical support
Schools looking for CPD with clear, lasting impact
A More Sustained Approach (Optional)
Many schools choose to extend this into a longer-term coaching partnership, with multiple visits to support implementation and review impact over time.
