This is a twelve-month online course starting every January is worth 120 credits. Mentoring in Education has been the subject of debate for a number of years and recent developments in schools, teacher training and universities have made it even more important to examine what makes an effective mentor. From September 2024 all schools are required to have trained Mentors to monitor teacher trainees in schools. Already Mentors need to be able to apply the Early Careers’ Framework (ECF) process to their Newly Qualified Teachers. These processes require good mentors. Whilst ITT and ECF mentoring will be covered, this course delves much more deeply into the thought processes and critical thinking needed to make an excellent mentor.
