Designing Instructional Walkthroughs That Work: Turning Classroom Visits Into Real Improvement
April 22, 2026 at 2 PM
Instructional walkthroughs are one of the most powerful levers for improving teaching and learning — but only when implemented with purpose and structure. Too often, walkthroughs are perceived as compliance checks rather than catalysts for growth.
In this webinar, school leaders will explore the power of instructional walkthroughs as a driver of alignment, clarity, and shared ownership of instructional excellence. Together, we will examine the common instructional gaps that walkthroughs can address — including inconsistent expectations, vague feedback, lack of follow-up, and initiatives that lack coherence.
What You’ll Learn
During this session, participants will:
- Identify common instructional misalignments walkthroughs can solve
- Design clear logistics and norms that build trust and reduce compliance culture
- Use walkthrough data to drive actionable feedback and meaningful follow-up
- Connect observations to coaching, professional learning, and strategic planning
By the end of the webinar, attendees will leave with a structured approach they can immediately implement to transform walkthroughs into a powerful engine for alignment, growth, and sustained instructional improvement.
