Scalable Relational Coaching for Schools
A whole-staff coaching model to reduce burnout, sharpen classroom behaviour and lift retention — at a fraction of the cost of traditional executive coaching.
Executive coaching has traditionally been reserved for senior leaders because of cost. By combining the Functional Fluency relational framework with the agile, bite-sized delivery of Coaching on the Go, we can bring high-impact coaching to your whole leadership team — or your entire staff body — through real-time prompts, 5–10 minute micro-coaching loops, and structured peer triads that fit around the school day.
What Staff Get
-
Baseline TIFF profile – self-awareness of the 9 behavioural modes, run at INSET.
-
Gizmo + COTG Skills Report – benchmarks 15 coaching behaviours against peers.
-
Micro-coaching tools – on-the-spot prompts for classroom and staffroom moments.
-
Peer-triad coaching – structured frameworks for staff to coach one another.
Why It Works
-
Reduced stress & absence – shifting staff from reactive “firefighting” to balanced, structured leadership.
-
Calmer classrooms – the “Power of the Pause” de-escalates disruption without lost learning time.
-
Higher retention – a psychologically safe, supported staff culture improves morale and loyalty.
-
Stronger parent partnerships – a shared relational language diffuses difficult meetings.
Two Ways to Engage
Option 1 — Leadership Alignment
Senior & middle leaders
Moves leadership culture from firefighting to structured, empowered delegation — TIFF and Gizmo profiling for all leaders, plus ongoing micro-coaching check-ins.
Option 2 — Whole-School Culture
All teaching staff
Establishes a whole-school relational operating system — whole-staff launch, peer-triad rollout, and optional embedding into pastoral/PSHE lessons.
Evidencing Impact & ROI
We help you evidence impact for governors and inspectors across three levels:
financial (reduced supply cover and recruitment spend), operational (time regained in meetings and de-escalation), and evaluative — a 12-month re-TIFF comparison against Guskey’s framework, correlated with referral, attendance and pupil wellbeing data.
