Making
a difference…
By becoming a Mentor to a young person YOU can be a positive
influence in their educational development.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Some students are in danger of not fulfilling their potential.
It could be due to lack of confidence, negative peer pressure
or low career aspirations. However, a Mentor can be a real
motivator and help instil the importance of doing one’s best at school
to increase the student’s job prospects.
You are asked to meet with your mentee for up to an hour,
once a fortnight, to discuss school, aspirations and
life in general.
You’ll be part of a Mentoring network where you can exchange
ideas and gain support from other Mentors.
