Each year Transition Year students are invited to apply to be Student Mentors. This is a very important position in our school. TY mentors receive training and this team of students have the responsibility of helping first year students settle into the school. 2/3 mentors are assigned to each 1st year tutor group. The mentors play a vital role in successfully helping first years settle into their new environment.
Some of the duties fulfilled by TY mentors are as follows:
- Meet with their tutor groups every day at tutorial
- Escort 1st years to and from lessons for the first few weeks
- Available to answer questions and advise the first year students as they settle into their new school
- Help students become familiar with their classrooms, timetables, lockers, etc.
- Provide a ‘friendly face’ and someone to talk to if a student is having a difficulty
- Check in with students at breaks informally to see how they are settling in
