One to One Mentoring
A mentor may be defined as ‘an experienced and trusted advisor’. At Impact we know that trust is central to self-belief and progress. This means that we promote 1:1 mentoring as a foundation to positive change. Our mentors are chosen for their passion to help young people and their inter-personal skills, Beyond that a range of qualifications and experiences gives us a diverse and driven team. 1:1 mentoring can be transformational and gives young people a listening ear, access to support, guidance and wisdom whilst enjoying themselves. This is our prescription for aspiration!
Learning Programmes
Working within a structure, and experiencing progress towards learning goals, is an important part of life. Our learning programmes meet our mentees at their current level of confidence and aptitude and then move them forwards; collecting evidence and completing challenges along the way. We offer a number of pre-vocational courses linked to ASDAN short-course accreditation. One Credit may be achieved in 10 sessions whereas a 6 Credit award may take a year as part of a combined package.
Tutoring
Our tutoring team support the development of English and Maths skills and re-engage students in their learning. This can be through bespoke project-based work functional skills or using the materials and platforms provided by the commissioning partner. Our tutors all mentor, and so they can provide an appropriately stretching learning environment with flexibility and real–world experiences included. Tutoring is often included alongside mentoring in a support package. From September 2021 we will be offering NCFE Functional Skills in English and Maths.
Post-16 Provision
Many young adults may not be ready to take the leap towards a college course, vocational training or employment. We now put together packages to build confidence and resilience for post-16 students who would benefit from our approach. Packages can include mentoring, ASDAN short-courses, NCFE qualifications and Functional English and Maths. The nurturing environment of our HQ, plus tutoring and learning programmes, can be a solid stepping–stone. We signpost and network to find additional opportunities for work and volunteering experiences to enrich this offer.
