This course examines effective techniques for caring for and support Post-16 students as they begin their transition into independent students, and learn to cultivate their own motivation to fuel them on their way. Delegates will explore how the role of the teacher changes over this period, and how the techniques of coaching and mentoring can be employed to help young people deal with the difficulties they face, be they academic or social.
This CPD day will be particularly helpful for those teachers looking after students in Year 12 - a time of transition from GCSE to A Level, when students are beginning to find their own feet and need to discover their own motivation, rather than expect external discipline to motivate them.
