Peer Mentoring is optional for S5 pupils but all S6 pupils will have the opportunity to Peer Mentor.

Pupils will participate in a training session with input from a variety of partners. They will then have personalisation and choice on which faculty they Peer Mentor in, this will be at the discretion of the faculty head. 

Peer mentoring will be a great addition to pupils CV and UCAS applications and will allow them to develop skills for life, learning and work.

The pupils will also achieve a Saltire Award. The Saltire Awards are the Scottish Government's way of celebrating, recognising and rewarding the commitment, contribution and achievements of young volunteers in Scotland.
