Academic Tutoring is about making the idea of 'high expectation' a reality for each student. To achieve this, there must be someone who knows, motivates, supports and praises the student; this person generally being the tutor. A good academic mentoring policy will also involve other key staff for identified individual students, notably pastoral managers and the Senior Leadership Team.
