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 />
