Building Collegial Relationships Library

The first stage of our peer coaching cycle was to build collegial relationships. In order to do so, we created group norms for how we would work together and interact in order to provide a safe, supportive and nurturing environment that would allow teachers and coaches to take risks and really reflect on their practice.
