Abstract

This chapter explores what we know about professional learning and ways of supporting it. It uses coaching (a structured, sustained process for enabling the development of a specific aspect of a professional learner’s practice) as a case study of how this evidence is being played out on the ground in England during the second decade of the twenty-first century. It draws extensively on work carried out by the Centre for the Use of Research and Evidence in Education (CUREE), first to support the development of the compulsory coaching element within the Government’s pilot of a Master’s in Teaching and Learning; second to support quality and depth in coaching; and third to evaluate the effectiveness of schools as professional learning environments. © Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014.
