BCTLT works with administration to help teachers learn more by better meeting their individual and system collective needs. With higher expectations for students, its no longer realistic for one principal to provide all the instructional leadership in a school. Teacher and principal leadership teams can support the more complex work required to prepare students for a knowledge-based economy. The program gives teachers a new career path opportunity in which they coach their peers to improve instruction. TLC allows teachers to work in greater collaboration with colleagues and learn from each other instead of operating largely in isolation in their classrooms. The underpinning concept of the legislation is that when students engage with great teachers, their education improves. 2 Curriculum/PD Leaders4 Instructional Coaches21 Model Teachers Collaboration with Teachers Collaborationwith Administration Benton Community Teacher Leader Vision
