Edu1st’s objective, through the onsite coaching, is to perform formative assessments and follow-up to the VESS Culture of Thinking implementation process in the educational institutions. In addition to supporting leaders and teachers, the mentor-coach seeks evidence of the implementation progress according to each stage, and suggests strategies to set the pace for the process of change. This is a space for learning and reflection, an opportunity for individual and institutional growth. For this Stage, the Edu1st team focuses its observations on the intentionality towards the individual’s holistic development, his or her character development.
