The Coaching Classroom: Reflections, Revisions, and Real Learning is a candid, story-driven guide for educators exploring the integration of coaching into their teaching practice. Through a series of relatable case studies, the book follows seven teachers, each navigating the hopeful beginnings, common missteps, and gradual growth that come with applying coaching strategies in real classrooms.

Rather than offering quick fixes or idealised models, this book presents the messy, human side of change: the over-enthusiastic launch that falls flat, the well-intentioned question that becomes a disguised command, the silent students overlooked by inclusive routines. Each story is paired with reflection prompts that invite readers to examine their own instincts, habits, and emerging coaching mindset.

With empathy and insight, The Coaching Classroom offers practical guidance without prescribing rigid methods. It encourages teachers to start small, be present, stay curious, and above all, to dare to learn through trial and error. The message is clear: coaching isn't about getting it right, it's about showing up with intention, humility, and the courage to keep revising your approach.

Whether you're a new teacher experimenting with student voice, or an experienced educator rethinking your role in the learning process, this book meets you where you are; and supports you as you grow.
