2025 VBCPS Summer Leadership Conference

Effective coaching hinges on clarity—both in teaching and in the guidance coaches provide to teachers. This session, *"Coaching for Clarity: Guiding Teachers in the Effective Use of Learning Intentions and Success Criteria,"* equips instructional leaders and coaches with the knowledge and tools to support teachers in designing and using clear, purposeful learning intentions and success criteria. Participants will explore what makes these elements powerful drivers of student learning, analyze real classroom examples, and engage in coaching simulations to practice giving targeted feedback. Whether you're new to coaching or looking to deepen your impact, this session will strengthen your ability to foster clarity and precision in instructional practice.
