Mentoring Groups

Each Transition Year pupil is assigned to a mentoring group headed by a member of staff who will supervise and advise the pupils thoughout the course of the year. Having met as a whole form in the first week, these smaller groups have been meeting during this past week and have exchanged ideas and become familiar with each other.

Pupils are encouraged to set themselves academic, extra-curricular and personal goals and their mentor will advise and support them in these aspirations. Each pupil will organise and collate a folder containing details of activities engaged in during the year. This will provide a permanent record of achievment. They will all be encouraged to contribute to, and hence take a lot from their own individual Transition Year.
