Abstract: Despite decades of research and many frameworks designed to address the inequities and exclusion in the public school system, large achievement gaps, inequitable systems, and exclusive policies exist. The scholar-practitioner believes instructional coaches are well-positioned to address the inequities and exclusion that exist in the public school system when properly trained. This improvement initiative aimed to increase the capacity of instructional coaches working in the North Carolina New Teacher Support Program (NCNTSP) to support equitable and inclusive instructional practices for the beginning teachers they support. A professional development series called “Sharpening Our Transformational EDI Skills” was offered to all NCNTSP instructional coaches statewide. The improvement initiative was designed using the Improvement Science methodology.
