Administrators and Teacher Leaders Teaming Up to Mentor New Teachers
from Steve Barkley Ponders Out Loud · host Steve Barkley
By pairing an administrator with a systems-level view and access to resources with a teacher leader deep in classroom expertise and credibility, a school-based mentor program added support to teachers new to teaching or new to the school. Their partnership sent a message that mentoring isn’t something done to teachers—it’s something we do together. "The most meaningful growth happens when learning is collective and public, not private or evaluative."
