North Carolina New Schools: Strategy | Talent Development

North Carolina New Schools believes that real and lasting educational change begins and ends in the classroom, with teachers who know their subject as well as the skills that students need to succeed and thrive in a changing world. Teachers in these schools collaborate with one another to talk about the needs of individual students and how to be better at their jobs. They work together to develop lessons that traverse the traditional lines dividing various subjects. They build a culture where teachers are encouraged to take risks that improve teaching and learning and a place where students aren't afraid to fail.

NC New Schools helps make that happen by providing intensive and proven coaching for teachers and principals in classroom instruction and supportive leadership. Educators benefit from well planned professional development activities that provide access to practical, challenging strategies and opportunities to collaborate with experts from across the state and nation.
