Peer Mentoring<br />
There has been much research into the issue of bullying in schools over recent<br />
decades which has shown that the consequences can be severe, including<br />
low self-esteem, absenteeism from school, poor academic attainment and<br />
relationship difficulties. Good peer relationships and friendships have been<br />
found to be important in buffering the negative effects of bullying. Where<br />
friends are lacking, specially trained peer supporters can provide a valuable<br />
service to younger students. Peer Mentoring training involves working with<br />
groups of older students within a school to provide training in key skills<br />
including active listening, summarising, the use of open questions and problem<br />
solving. Kent Educational <strong>Psychology</strong> Service can provide Peer Mentoring<br />
training for students, as well as the option for on-going support in providing<br />
supervision for mentors.<br />
