Student Mentoring


Volunteers from the second and third year have offered to act as mentors to this year’s Level One single and dual History students. You will already have been assigned to a mentor before you arrived if you decided to take up this offer. They are keen to pass on some of the things they wish they had known a year ago, if only to tell you where to find places, people, and reading. Their purpose is not to duplicate the support you are entitled to from your Personal Tutor, and (since rules and requirements are always being updated) they may not be able to answer every question you have, but they hope to be helpful if you seem confused.
