EV Coaching Package

What is an EV Coaching Package?

This is a coaching model which focusses on existing good practice. Facilitators provide their specialist knowledge and tools to support practitioners to reflect on the needs of their setting. With the support of facilitators, practitioners identify what is working well and what can be enhanced to meet the needs of all learners.

This package can last approximately 8 weeks and involves a combination of observations, professional dialogue, collaborative problem solving, signposting, practical advice, coaching and role modelling.

The package is bespoke to the setting and topics covered will vary from one setting to another.

What you can expect from us:

  • A commitment to facilitating your journey
  • An informal pre-package visit, that includes an observation and professional dialogue
  • Identification of areas of good practice and areas for development
  • Between 2 and 4 on the floor coaching and role modelling sessions with staff within the working day
  • Observations, feedback and support to identify next steps
  • The sharing of resources and strategies to support practice and problem solving
  • Support to develop an Action plan
  • A revisit, to your setting, to observe your action plan in practice
  • Evaluation of participation and progress

What we expect from you:

  • An agreed commitment to engage in package
  • Implementation of action plan, within given timeframe
  • Proactive, positive attitude to implementing change
  • Engagement in collaborative working
  • Ensure that the identified next steps from the action plan can be seen in practice during the revisit
  • A commitment to embed learning into daily practice – to ensure continued progression
  • To complete post package questionnaires
