Inhaltsangabe

In this book, you will be taken through every step of setting up a mentoring system and creating a supportive peer-to-peer mentoring system for the teachers in your school. With the information in this guide, you could even set yourself up as a team leader to initiate a mentoring system in your school and surrounding schools!

At School-Kits, we recognise that teaching is one of the most important professions in society. Unfortunately, it is not one of the easiest. We all know that staff numbers are down in many countries and the staff-to-student ratio is not the best in most schools. Keeping good teachers in the profession is a task in itself.

This is where setting up a teacher mentoring system is important. When a teacher stands at the front of a class or begins a lesson, they are the sole mechanism by which all the students in that class are to learn. This alone can create a feeling of isolation and doubt in some teachers, especially new teachers fresh from teacher’s college.

Mentoring between teachers and staff increases teacher retention and enhances faculty cooperation and teamwork. It also helps to reduce the feelings of pressure and isolation when each teacher knows they have a set network to access for assistance. This is just one thing this book will teach you.

Everyone needs support. Not just during the trying times of the pandemic but coping in what is often an overloaded position. Good teachers become teachers because they love to teach and help the students in their care.

Feeling isolated and under pressure can lead to stress. Stress can lead to mistakes or something being overlooked. Everyone works better when they know they are not isolated or alone but part of a cohesive team with colleagues they can rely on and turn to if needed. This is where a good staff mentoring programme comes in.
