Here in Initial Teacher Education land, we're very familiar with coaching our brand-new members of the profession, student teachers who are working towards that all-important qualified teacher status (QTS). But today's guest, Julie Keyes, has moved sideways from a successful career in teaching to provide coaching to more experienced members of the profession.

Working with senior leaders as well as those further down the food chain, Julie joins us down the line from Cornwall to discuss how coaching can benefit teachers and schools, how she goes about having a coaching conversation, and what she can draw out with some simple but effective questions.

Julie's video recommendation is How to Tame your Advice Monster, and her book recommendation is Coaching on the Go.
