Any specialist support provided will be tailored to the student’s individual needs, setting out clear goals and timescales. Specialist Mentors work with a Mentor Action Plan (MAP) to framework their sessions so that responsibilities and expectations can be negotiated appropriately. As each student’s needs are different, sessions are tailored to suit specific individual requirements.
