Assessing the Cost of Instructional Coaching.<\/strong> Each year school systems spend approximately $15 million per school year, $230 per student, and $3,390 per teacher, totaling 2.9% of the operating budget, to provide a variety of professional development opportunities from workshops to coaching to whole-school development (Cleaver, 2020). Research suggests coaching is one of the most effective methods for increasing the effectiveness of professional development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the past twenty years, the popularity of school-based instructional coaching has grown. But one obstacle to the wide-spread use of coaching is the cost of delivering the service. This paper examines the resources needed for coaching and offers a framework for measuring these costs. The author finds coaching costs range from $3,260 to $5,220 per teacher. These are substantial expenses. Given limited education budgets, policymakers need to conduct cost\/benefit analyses that compare traditional professional development methods such as workshops. This study lays the groundwork for cost-effectiveness studies by presenting a framework for measuring costs and reporting costs of a specific program.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another valuable resource for determining a return on investment for education interventions is Stewart Yeh’s 2007 study,\u00a0The cost-effectiveness of five policies for improving student achievement.<\/em>\u00a0Yeh offers a framework for utilizing a practice effect size and costs of the practice to determine what method is best suited given a school’s current budget.\u00a0Incorporating cost-benefit analyses into schools’ decision-making process is essential if educators make the most informed decisions impacting student outcomes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
