Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of a coaching innovation provided by teachers in primary education, based on exploring and using students’ core qualities. This thesis focused specifically on the effects on students’ happiness and self-concept, and whether gender played a moderating role in these effects. To research this, staff of 11 primary schools were trained in Core Quality Coaching and the innovation took place for a year. A sample of students (N = 390) filled in a questionnaire before the innovation, and a sample (N = 244) filled in the same questionnaire after the innovation. No effects were found of coaching on happiness and self-concept, nor had gender a moderating effect. Although no evidence was found to support the hypotheses, previous research still gives enough indication that Core Quality Coaching can have positive outcomes in primary education. Further research could investigate these effects in different settings, with stricter monitoring of the implementation, or with a different research design.
