APPRECIATIVE INQUIRY OF A MENTORING PROGRAMME IN SOWETO
Education support services are aimed at addressing learner well-being holistically. Learner performance is linked to sufficient psychological, medical and social support. This study was an evaluation of a non-governmental organisation aimed at providing learners with psycho-social support and used the application of an Appreciative Inquiry approach. An Appreciative Inquiry approach is a method for generating change within an organisation by looking at what works in the organisation and facilitating active participation. The main findings from this study were that the programme seems to have positively affected learners’ performance both academically and behaviourally; the programme was perceived to have raised the general standard of academic performance at the school.
