Mentoring is used in a wide range of situations in education: to assist learning; to help weaker students or those with specific learning needs or difficulties; to develop community or business links; to aid the inclusion of pupils otherwise at risk of exclusion; to develop ethnic links; to enable students to benefit from the support of their peers.The development and proliferation of mentoring and mentoring schemes in education over the last few years has been dramatic, and presents teachers, principals and superintendants, as well as mentors themselves with a challenge. This book presents all mentors plus anyone working with young people with an invaluable guide to approaches to mentoring today. It looks at mentoring as a concept, at what mentoring is, how it is done well and how it can be made more effective. Contents include: understanding student mentoring; the forms of student mentoring; a guide to effective student mentoring. Written by a leading expert on mentoring, this practical and relevant handbook is backed up throughout by relevant case studies and examples from schools and schemes internationally.
