The Mentoring and Befriending Foundation (MBF) has been contracted by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) to establish a high-quality, formal and sustainable peer mentoring scheme in 180 schools in England that can be evaluated to assess the impact on pupils and schools.
The independent evaluation, carried out by the University of Canterbury, is now available. To find out more, and read the report, please click here.
A four-part series concentrating on peer mentoring in education has been jointly developed by Teachers TV and the MBF. The schools taking part in the programmes have been part of the national pilot study into peer mentoring, which began two years ago.
The programmes are available on the Teachers TV website. They can also be viewed on Sky Guide 880, Virgin TV 240, Tiscali TV 845 and Freeview 88 (4-5pm).
