Learning Mentors & Inclusion<br />
At some point or another some students may experience difficulties.<br />
At these times it may be necessary to assign a Learning Mentor.<br />
During such times it has been proven that having someone to help<br />
students work through challenges can empower students and<br />
allow them to focus on their learning.<br />
Learning mentors use a variety of approaches which can be tailored<br />
to individual needs. Some of the methods used are:<br />
* 1 : 1 mentoring * Group Work * Advocacy<br />
* Conflict resolution * Mediation *<br />
* Motivation * Homework support *<br />
* Organisational skills * Target setting *<br />
* Bereavement * Workshops *<br />
counselling<br />
* Transition * Literacy support *<br />
