One literacy coach based  \nin a Queensland primary school recounts her experiences via open  \nended interview over a two year period. We offer a theorisation of the newways of working as a literacy coach in a context of teaching and  \nlearning marked by diversity.  \nDespite the number of departments of education throughout the world appointing school-based literacy coaches (see Rennie, 2011), the research literature reports thatways of working as a literacy coach are varied and complex. The confusion is so resounding, a largescale survey of literacy coaches from across the United States called on state education providers to rethink the depth and breadth of preparedness for working as a literacy coach before assigning high performing teachers to the position (Dole, Liang, Watkins & Wiggins, 2006) . Another large-scale survey from across the United States documented that many school-based literacy coaches were expending ‘a great deal of energy trying to create an identity’ (Blamey, Meyer & Walpole, 2008, p. 122) . Rainville and Jones’ (2008) qualitative case-study also records the inherent tensions as literacy coaches negotiate their varied identities with different stakeholders. Another research study undertaken with 31 literacy coaches over a two year period by Walpole and Blamey (2008) found that ‘what coaches should do on the job is the matter of intense debate and very little scholarship’(p. 222) . Similarly, Australian-based educators Gill, Kostiw and Stone (2010) report on the ‘anxiety’associated with ‘diverse interpretations’ of the literacy coaching role (p. 52) . The experiences of one literacy coach, which are explored in this paper, add to the developing concept of theliteray coaching role in Australia by sharing new ways of working when faced with diverse contexts of teaching and learning.  \nTo better understand the range of ways of working as a primary school literacy coach and their varying implications, we introduce one newly appointed literacy coach from Queensland, Miss Leigh Tracey (pseudonym). We present experiences from Miss Tracey as a result of dozens of informal interviews over a period of two years. The next section offers a brief introduction to the educational context, Miss Tracey’s professional background, the professional development program for newly appointed literacy coaches in Queensland, and information about the school site where Miss Tracey undertook her first literacy coaching assignment. We then recount the first year of Miss Tracey’s assignment where she implemented the departmentally sanctioned literacy coaching model, a dialogic cycle of activity of leading the teachers through multiple phases of","cbCaijJARGSZVE6z","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijJARGSZVE6z","pdf",189022,15,"English","# Abstract\n## Evolving literacy coach roles and research background\n## Context, participants, and professional development\n## Year one: implementing the sanctioned coaching model\n## Year two: inquiry into socio-cultural aspects and literacy identities\n## Theoretical perspective and re-theorising the coaching model","[{\"question\":\"What does the study examine about literacy coaching roles?\",\"answer\":\"It examines how literacy-coaching roles evolve and how coaches work with school teams in diverse teaching and learning contexts, drawing attention to varied and complex ways of working.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the main evidence collected?\",\"answer\":\"The evidence comes from open-ended interviews conducted over a two-year period with one Queensland primary-school literacy coach.\"},{\"question\":\"What changes are described from the first to the second year of the coach’s assignment?\",\"answer\":\"In the first year, the coach implements a departmentally sanctioned literacy coaching model through a dialogic cycle.
