The Form Teacher is the front-line manager in the classroom management. It is the form teacher who is in daily contact with the students, and shares some responsibility for creating a spirit of caring within the class and school. Likewise, for subject teachers or teachers of other disciplines, their roles are no less important. All teachers are encouraged to assist one another in upholding a Total School Approach towards creating a positive and nurturing school environment, working closely with the Student Development Unit, especially the Level Senior Consultants. Form teachers come directly under the mentorship and guidance of the Directors of Consortium.
The Mentors in the Centre for Scholastic Excellence (CSE) established a nurturing relationship with a small group of students, which is their mentees. The mentoring relationship is both values-oriented as well as developmental in nature, in which the mentor, being a more experienced adult acts as a coach, a facilitator and a counselor to guide and support the mentees in their personal growth and expansion.
CSE mentors are expected to meet up with their mentees regularly and to establish effective channels of communication with their mentees, monitoring and guiding them in both their academic & non-academic progress.
