The Chicago Public Schools (CPS) has set ambitious goals to ensure that every child—in every school and every neighborhood—has access to a world-class learning experience from birth, resulting in graduation from high school college- and career-ready. Impacting the instructional core is one of the top educational priorities for CPS, through continuous improvement cycles of learning. The School-Based Lead Coach will support schools in impacting the instructional core through instructional development, change management, and school-level continuous improvement to drive success for all students.

The Lead Coach will plan and take the steps necessary to continually improve and expand the instructional core within their assigned school, thereby enriching the lives of more students in Chicago Public Schools. This guide is meant to support school leaders in defining the new Instructional coaching roles in their buildings, as well as how to set expectations and align support.
