The mentoring relationship

Who looks after the student, and how support works.

  • A dedicated university mentor is the student's consistent point of contact
  • An introductory one-to-one session and a 20-minute private check-in each fortnight create a regular conversation
  • One midweek follow-up supports a decision the student has agreed to make

    • Goals we work on

    Development that matters beyond this week.

    • Study technique, subject priorities and assessment preparation
    • Responsibility, follow-through and honest reflection
    • HSC planning, early entry, UAC and scholarship tasks
    • Course, university and alternative pathway exploration

    Who it suits

    A useful fit when the challenge is follow-through.

    Several senior subjects competing for attention
    Trials or HSC preparation feeling reactive
    Assessment dates and revision needing one system
    University and pathway decisions adding pressure

    Parent communication

    Useful visibility, without turning support into surveillance.

    Weekly parent progress update, with an end-of-term family review.

    Personalisation

    Built around the student, not a generic template.

    The mentor adapts subject priorities, practice, assessment planning and pathway resources to the student's goals, calendar and current pressures.

    Practical tools included

    Tools that support the mentoring work.

    These are practical supports, not the main product. The mentoring relationship helps the student use each tool with more purpose.
