Mentoring Scheme for AS Maths Students

Produced by the Learning Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), this case study tackles the theme of progression through STEM subjects. It looks at a mentoring scheme set up by St Francis Xavier College to support students in mathematics. In the scheme, A2 students were paired with AS students and given advice about how to mentor. Students were left to arrange meeting times and places. After several months a survey was completed to assess the success of the scheme and to see what could be improved prior to a second round of mentoring to tie in with exam revision.
