Trevor Wharton Posted August 23, 2004 Is anybody out there mentoring trainee teachers on the OU Flexible PGCE course next year? The whole thing looks quite complicated compared to the GTP mentoring I've done. Any advice welcome. Hope you all had a good summer - roll on Christmas!

Rob Jones Posted August 29, 2004 It only appears more complex than GTP mentoring because the chances are, your RB or DRB provided very little, if any guidelines for mentoring. In theory, the mentoring process should be the same regardless of which route to QTS the trainee is following. I worked with the OU on their flexible PGCE and found that the support they give to mentors and trainees is exceptional. If you get stuck with which form to fill in or which assessment is due, just ring the regional office who will sort things out for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trevor Wharton Posted August 29, 2004 Thanks Rob. I've set up a meeting with one of regional people to go through all the bits and pieces. Seem to be very helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
