| Summary: | Mentoring is generally understood as having a positive impact on people and society. The informal system of youth mentoring among Senior High School students in Ghana is referred to in this essay as "school parenting". This exploratory study uses Kram’s (1983:613-622) model of mentoring to investigate "school parenting," which is discussed based on the following findings: (a) students’ experience of "school parenting" in light of Kram’s mentoring model; (b) faith and nurturing; (c) exposure to risky behaviours; (d) compassion needs; and (e) approach to social justice. The article contextualizes mentorship in campus settings and examines it from a missional perspective. |
