• 1. Coaching should help establish a school culture that recognizes collaboration as an asset.

• 2. Coaching should develop individual and group capacity to engage in creative problem solving and self reflection.

• 3. Coaching should provide a continuum of professional learning opportunities to support adults in their acquisition and use of specific knowledge, skills, and strategies. Moran, 2007
