Continuing the theme of students taking on leadership and contributing to their community.
Year 11 Mentoring - A number of Year 12 and Year 13 students have started mentoring Year 11 students to support them with their GCSE revision and preparation.
Peer Mentoring - There are also a number of students offering 'Peer Mentoring' in the Sixth Form. these students are supporting each other to help build confidence in different Sixth Form subject areas.
Reading Mentors - Developing their own communication and leadership skills, whilst supporting others, 26 students in the Sixth Form are listening to students read. They help younger students to choose their next reading book, listen to them read it and offer support where necessary.
The Sixth Formers are enjoying leading the planning of these sessions, being a 'critical' friend and pointing out which areas should be a focus for the student they are working with
Students meet to support each other during tutor time at various times in the week.
The feedback so far has been very positive.
