During this meeting, the Director of Special Education and the teacher will come up with an individual success plan. Individual success plans vary by each person. Some success plans can include weekly one-on-one meetings, bi-weekly phone calls, one night/month of paperwork, etc. For brand new teachers, the Director of Special
Education will take on a Directive Style, whereas for veteran teachers, the Director of Special Education might take on a Coaching Style. A Directive Style gives an authoritative approach to provide the subordinate detailed goals and tasks while closely monitoring their performance and success. This style is great for new teachers that are coming right out of college and are about to have a classroom all on their own.
