CO-TEACHING PARTNERSHIP HUB

Share the classroom.
Clarify the work.

Build a balanced partnership agreement, assign weekly responsibilities, and establish protocols before uncertainty becomes conflict.

Both are teachers

Both educators lead, know learners, and contribute professional judgment.

Plan from evidence

Choose roles and models from the learning need—not titles or habit.

Clarify before conflict

Name ownership, boundaries, and decision protocols in advance.
