Mentoring FAQs

Where do mentors need to be located?

As mentoring meetings primarily take place online, mentors can based anywhere in the UK. Our partner schools in London, so most mentees will be based there. 

You may find it easier to participate in the full programme if you live or work near to London, but there are many instances where a fully virtual mentoring approach works well. We ask all mentors and mentees to attend an end of year celebration event which takes place in Central London.
