Didcot TRAIN - One to One Mentoring
We currently have FREE Virtual Mentoring sessions available for Young People aged 11-18, who live in Didcot or Harwell and/or attend a Didcot or Harwell School.
Our 1:1 mentoring sessions are typically held weekly for 1/2 - 1 hour at a time, over a 6 week period.
We work with each young person to address any issues or concerns throughout the programme, individually tailoring sessions based on their specific needs. These are ascertained through conversations with the school, parent/guardian and the young person, including mild to high level emotional or behavioural difficulties, persistent non-school attendance, family problems or temporary exclusions.
Further examples of specific focuses of programmes may include:
- Acting as an early intervention strategy to support vulnerable young people at risk of or involved in crime and/or anti-social behaviour.
- Building a young person’s confidence and self-esteem to empower them to protect themselves from sexual exploitation.
1. Young people must live in Didcot or Harwell and/or attend a Didcot or Harwell School to be eligible for the programme
2. Young people must be aged 11-18
3. Other factors that we would consider include:
- Complex family issues that affect school life, at risk behaviour e.g. sexual behaviour, bullying, substance misuse school refuser.
- Demonstrating anti-social behaviour in the community and in school
- Young people whose involvement with the Hub has ended or do not meet the threshold but would benefit from mentoring.
