Mentors

At Barons Court, our year six pupils apply for prefect roles that they are specifically interested in and the roles that they feel they can make a difference to across the whole school, once appointed. A mentor is one of the prefect roles and as a mentor the children work both internally; supporting our school community, and externally; supporting people in our local area. 

The 2024-2025 Nursery Mentors are: Betsy, Faith, Pippa, Hope and Tommy.

The 2024-2025 Community Mentors are: Evelyn, Robin, Kyrell, Luchia and Esha.

The 2024-2025 Academic Mentors are: Sai, Imogen, Lucas, Amelia and Ginevra.

The mentors are very passionate about making a difference to many people in our community both inside and outside of the school gates. They engage with the nursery children and support maths in Phase 3. The Nursery Mentors go into the Nursery twice a week to play with the children and to support them with learning new skills. They also  spend time exploring books with the children in  Phase 3 and supporting them with their use of phonics to read new words. 

The Community Mentors also recognise that we have so many great care homes in our local area who work very hard. They like to support the care homes across Westcliff and will be doing this by sending them video messages, stories, songs and activities this year. We are sure that the residents will really appreciate the thought and consideration and will enjoy  seeing the children regularly. 

We look forward to sharing with you more of our work over the coming year.
