At Inclusive Mentoring we use our extensive skills, gained whilst working in the Special Education sector, to help schools and local authorities meet the needs of young people from Key Stage 1 and upwards in Bristol, North Somerset, Somerset, BANES and South Gloucestershire.
At the heart of our mentoring programmes is the belief that meaningful change starts with stable, positive relationships. Each young person we work with is supported by a dedicated mentor who provides consistent guidance, encouragement and support. Through this relationship-based approach we help young people develop the confidence, resilience and emotional skills needed to engage positively with education and their communities.

Personalised 1:1 mentoring
Our skilled staff will use a child-centered approach to work alongside our clients to co-create mentoring programmes for every young person. All progress will be recorded and reported at set intervals.
Small group work
We deliver tailored small group sessions for up to six people. Each programme is designed around the specific needs of the group, with a focus on developing social skills, building confidence and promoting positive peer interaction in a supportive environment.
Catch up tuition
Out team includes experienced specialist teachers who provide high-quality 1:1 tuition across a range of subjects. Sessions are carefully tailored to complement and reinforce the work being completed in school, helping pupils build confidence and close gaps in learning. This service is currently available for Key Stage 2 pupils.
Community engagement
Some young people require additional support beyond the school setting to help them manage personal risk, participate in community activities, and prepare for employment. Inclusive Mentoring provides targeted support to help young people build independence, access opportunities and engage positively within their communities.
