What is SCHOOL-BASED MENTOR TRAINING?  School-based mentors should use weekly meetings as an opportunity to provide residents/apprentice teachers with instructional and professional feedback and solicit feedback and input from the resident/apprentice teacher. As the primary coaches at the school level, school-based mentors should observe residents/apprentice teachers in the classroom and provide concrete action steps so residents/apprentice teachers are consistently supported to grow as teachers. School-based mentors will also be asked to formally score residents/apprentice teachers on the Gateway rubrics to give a school perspective on their progress to date.  In support of this responsibility, Relay’s Clinical Practice Team provides training required asynchronous training and associated synchronous office hours for the coming academic year.
