Abstract
The coaching space, too often undervalued in education, is an effective space for allowing students to enhance cognitive capacity; an opportunity to pause, to think and to perceive clearly. This brief article, drawn from the author’s solution-focused coaching practice in an A Level Further Education context, attests to the efficacy of applying Coaching Psychology in conversations with older teenagers on their educational journey. Insights from the Covid 19 Lockdown are applied to illuminate the potential value of Coaching Psychology interventions for students in the post-pandemic context.
