Valuing Adult Learning with Sara Brodhead and Jim Laney

In this #coachbetter episode, Kim talks with Jim Laney, Head of School & Sara Brodhead, Director of Teaching and Learning at Kaohsiung American School in Taiwan. Sarah has now moved on to Hong Kong International Sschool, and Jim, who's still HoS at Kaohsiung, is a repeat guest on the show - check out his earlier episode where we talk about how instructional coaching supports at all levels.

Kim has been working with KAS for the last two years to support their brand new middle leadership team in developing their instructional leadership capacity and applying a coaching mindset to their work. In that time, KAS has also hired two new instructional coaches, and this conversation developed from our work together.

In this episode, Jim, Sara and Kim talk about..

  • the development of the new middle leadership and instructional coaching roles at KAS
  • the distinction between supervision and evaluation and the professional growth that coaching can provide
  • their vision for the new instructional coaching roles
  • the structures they are putting in place
  • measuring the impact of their work
  • how we can help other school leaders and educators see the value of instructional coaching

This conversation highlights the huge impact an investment in teacher professional growth can have in our schools.
