Progress is continuing on five minute mentors, our online mentoring website supported by Becta — here we are using the site to do a quick practise mentoring session. The site isn’t quite user-friendly enough for our liking yet (some tweaks needed — you can for example arrange a session in the past) but the video calling is working really well.

The private beta is involving existing learning groups, however informal — so if you’re a learning provider or group member and think that secure, quick online mentoring could help give us a shout and we can set you up.
