Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
4/5
Within my role as a Learning Mentor; I provide advice to support my learners overcome any barriers or obstacles they may face preventing them from learning. I help to support their plan in which they create to support themselves with realistic targets & goals which helps to achieve the best outcome.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
4/5
I enjoy working with learners- both adults & children as it’s such a rewarding feeling once they have achieved what they have set.
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
4/5
I have been able to achieve a level 2 safeguarding qualification & also been able to gain access to a level 2 ICT course.
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
2/5
At the moment, I feel that my programme has been supported but in the beginning could have been managed better & looked into further as an employer’s perspective as well as professionals within work placements preventing an extension that I have been provided.
How much support do you receive from your employer?
4/5
I received a lot of support from my tutors in both apprenticeship I have been a part of at Inspire- [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the Higherin Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] are great tutors/mentors & have patiences of a saint! I also have check ins with apprentice managers when things are not going accordingly.
How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?
3/5
There were questions in regards to tutors & course expectations; however now that I have a tutor who knows how to deliver & is also permanent- all is going well. I believe that 1 day, every 2 weeks in order to have class room based learning- is an essential part of progress.
How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?
3/5
It helps me support my fellow colleagues & learners- however I am based in a Primary School- so majority of my learners are children. So it’s had to stay focused & motivated to do 2 different roles.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)
5/5
At work we have INSET training which provided extra support within the field I work in. They have also sent me on DSL training & looking to further upskill me within the safeguarding role.
