Yes, exactly! I do the same. Sometimes, I just have a standing day/time with a T & we use it to plan/discuss throughout cycle.

Q7 What tools/systems do you use to monitor the impact of your coaching?

That's a great idea. Something is always de-railing appointments. Maybe a more consistent time would help.

Must sign up 24 hrs in advance. At the end of the school day I go in and gray out the next day so Ts know, no more sign ups.
