measured through being accepted by their coachees in improving both the lesson
quality and knowledge growth while working with adult learners with different
attitude is one of their toughest challenges besides having conflicting roles. As for
the influence of SISC+, the findings revealed that the SISC+ has been successful in
influencing the coachees to transform in the improvement of lesson quality. Based

development and practical implementation to the stakeholders and the SISC+. This

concluded that the initiative of the Ministry to accelerate the transformation of
education through positioning the SISC+ in PPD is a good effort however these
SISC+ must be trained to be competent, knowledgeable and skillful in the areas of
pedagogies, curriculum, and assessments. On the whole understanding the roles of a
coach at the educational setting are crucial at all level then only these SISC+ can
perform their duty well.
