Handover, Induction & Mentoring Kit
A clear plan for your next group of student leaders
Appointing student leaders is one job. Preparing them for the role is another.
The Handover, Induction & Mentoring Kit gives you structured teacher guidance, practical activities and printable student resources to support three important stages of student leadership.
Help outgoing leaders pass on what they know
Give experienced leaders a purposeful way to finish. Handover activities help them share advice, reflect on what they’ve learned and prepare their successors for the responsibilities ahead.
Those valuable lessons can stay in the school when the students move on.
Give incoming leaders somewhere to start
A badge brings excitement. It can also bring uncertainty.
Use the induction activities to help new leaders understand their responsibilities, explore what leadership looks like in practice and prepare to contribute to school life.
Keep supporting leaders after induction
Leadership learning continues when students begin doing the job.
Use the mentoring and reflection activities to guide ongoing conversations about their experiences, the challenges they face and what they could do next.
Spend your preparation time adapting, rather than starting from scratch
The kit brings together:
- Teacher implementation guidance to help you organise your approach.
- Handover activities for outgoing and incoming student leaders.
- Induction resources to help students prepare for their roles.
- Mentoring and reflection activities to support learning throughout the leadership year.
- Printable student worksheets to put the activities into practice.
Start with the stage your school needs now, then use the other sections as your leadership year progresses.
