ABSTRACT
First Published in 1995. This book is directed at setting the feet of mentors on a path towards a principled approach to practice, built upon the twin foundations of seeking better understanding of issues and continual refinement of practice. This book is addressed to both primary and secondary teachers who are preparing to undertake new mentoring roles in initial teacher education (ITE). The concerns of this publication are with knowledge, understanding, capacities and skills that are common to such mentoring across all age-ranges.
