Abstract
A key aspect of supporting student teachers effectively is adopting appropriate mentoring approaches. This piece presents the early findings of a study that collected insights from student teachers and those who support them as they train to teach. In parallel to the mentoring literature the different roles a mentor has is evident as their multi-faceted role is discussed. However, the three key factors of relationships, professional learning and time emerge as being critically interwoven and underpin successful mentoring approaches.
