Lee McAuliffe, an educational coach, working with new headteacher Marie Corbett, explores how to build a strong working relationship with her deputy. In order to build good foundations Lee encourages Marie to clarify what her vision of headship is by thinking about the principles that are important to her. Having identified the key principle of partnership, Lee shows Marie how she can create manageable goals that will allow her to reach her ideal vision of collaboration with her deputy. The model Lee demonstrates involves the new head articulating the values that are important to them and then scheduling in all the actions required to encourage them to follow through with them. This allows the new head to celebrate the small steps that will take them to their goal
