A long overdue handbook for those carrying out this vital work in supporting our early career colleagues. </p><p>Emma Turner, Research and CPD Lead, Discovery Schools Trust, and founder of #NewEd </p><br><br><p><i>Mentoring in </i><i>Schools</i> providesaa succinctaexploration of what is required to be a successful mentor in a school. Haili guides readers through the Teachers' Standards, offering the prospective or established mentor a wealth of strategies and interventions with which to support their mentee. Utilising her own original collection of relevant case studies, as well as her own extensive experience, Haili offers excellent advice and guidance to anyone charged with mentoring the next generation of teachers. Above all, Haili is an excellent writer and her passion for the profession clearly translates into the pages of this book. I highly recommend this book to anyone embarking on that special journey of supporting a teacher colleague. </p><p>Tom Rogers, history teacher, blogger, and director of TeachMeetIcons and Edudate</p><br><br><p>Drawing upon her vast experience, Haili Hughes has produced an insightful, challenging and thought-provoking book which provides a range of supportive ideas within proven systems and structures to promote mentoring of colleagues. It is primarily aimed at developing the mentoring of new entrants to teaching to support the development of their skills and confidence; however, I can envisage a need to extend the support to other, more experienced colleagues too. The emphasis throughout <i>Mentoring in Schools</i> is on promoting a framework within which new entrants experience opportunities linked to clear systems of support and guidance. The structure of the book is excellent in discussing strategies to promote subject and curriculum awareness and knowledge. The sections to promote skills of mentors in assisting with planning, tracking, modelling, worked examples, scaffolding and dialogic teaching linked to CPD are extremely beneficial. Linked to this are additional strategies to ensure assessment is effective, promoting the technique of verbal feedback during the lesson, traffic lights, colour highlighting, etc. The book is also packed with really positive and practical ideas for mentors to raise the impact of their work a for example, the aI have, I am, I can' model for developing resilience. I highly recommend this book for all school- and college-based mentors and subject leaders to ensure that teachers will receive the support, guidance and tips to ensure they are confident, happy and can build, or re-engage with, successful careers. </p><p>John Morris, Director, JTM Educational Consultant</p><br><br><p>Haili's book provides mentors with a handy step-by-step guide through the Early Career Framework, enabling them to provide support and instruction to their mentees. It provides a wealth of research, explanation, examples, practical advice and activities to underpin some of the most effective approaches in ensuring high expectations for all and improving teaching. <i>Mentoring </i><i>in Schools</i> will prove invaluable to all mentors, whether they are experienced in or new to the role, providing a clear guide to those working with early career teachers and indeed anyone who could benefit from some mentoring regardless of stage. It is certainly a book I would recommend to all who want to reflect on their practice as a mentor. </p><p>Zoe Enser, Lead English Adviser, The Education People, and author and blogger</p><br><br><p>Ina<i>Mentoring </i><i>in Schools</i>, Haili Hughes exemplifies the ways in which effective mentoring can ensure that new and trainee teachers have an exciting and empowering start to their teaching roles, providing them with the tools to sustain a fulfilling career in education.aDrawing on her experience in academia, Hughes combines the voices of new teachers through qualitative interviews, with a systematic approach to the new Early Career Framework, illustrating what effective mentoring looks like on both a cultural and practical level.
