Task B Meeting briefing paper
As a result of the poster produced in Task A, there are a number of people interested in becoming personal tutors. You have decided to hold a meeting to explain the role in detail.

a) how own values, behaviours, and attitudes can impact on the personal tutoring role (ref 1.2)
b) the boundaries and limitations of a personal tutoring role (ref 1.3)
c) the importance of acting according to ethical and professional codes and standards in a personal tutoring role (ref 2.2)
d)Explain why it is important that learners take responsibility for their own learning and why it is important that personal tutoring programmes support the development of learning and transferable skills (ref 2.3)
e) factors which identify learners at risk of disengaging from learning. (ref 2.5)

The paper must also:
f) describe the range of support available for learners within a specific context (ref 3.1) and
g) analyse approaches to support learners to create personal learning targets. (ref 4.2)
