This paper draws upon the professional experience of a group of five coaching supervision practitioners to inform and reflect upon practice in this field of supervision to compare and contrast with supervision in education. The author is one of a team of coach supervisors practicing across multiple sectors, with strong educational links providing a unique perspective of coaching supervision models and techniques that may be tailored and transferred to the educational sector. Models and approaches from coaching supervision practice are shared and assessed in terms of transferability of outcomes for potential application within educational supervision. Models and approaches traditionally used in coaching supervision are explored. Exploration of tools and methods that can be applied to education may enrich the experience for the academic supervisor and student thesis dissertation. The aim is to offer a sustainable and lasting experience for the student that can be carried through to their future employment and result in a rewarding and fulfilling journey for themselves and the academic supervisor. Methodology applied is the analysis of practitioner case studies and applied models drawing upon the practitioner insight and experience to critique each model for academic ‘fit.’
