Mentoring in Schools

A substantial shift in the way student teachers are trained has meant that increasing numbers of school teachers are now sharing the responsibility for student tuition with teacher training colleges. The mentoring pilot system has caused teachers anxiety due to a lack of guidelines on how to integrate the mentoring system into everyday school life. This volume provides teachers with practical advice on the creation and maintenance of mentoring programmes. It covers proactive supervision, the development of programmes, the programme criteria and future developments.
