Section 6 MENTORING

Mentoring is a process that involves the participation of the Principal in helping a teacher
improves his/her instructional performance collaboratively and non-judge-mentally. It is a process
that provides individualized professional guidance on a long term basis. It is a sustained and
mutually agreeable relationship intended to help an inexperienced teacher develop his/her
professional skills. The basic principle involved in the process is the sharing of expertise. Together,
the mentor and the faculty develop a mentoring plan for implementation. In some cases, the
Principal or the Level Coordinator requests an experienced teacher to serve as a mentor and share
his/her expertise to a faculty.
