Dear Chris,
Not precisely the answer I think you are looking for, but there is nevertheless some very useful material related to mentoring on the What Works page of the WASRS archive http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/what-works-retention [See the ‘Peer mentoring..’ report by Aston, for example].
You might also find it useful to read the literature synthesis by Sanders and Higham on the role of Students in retention and success or May et al’s on Social mobility/careers. Scroll down here http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/resources/detail/WP_syntheses/six_literature_syntheses
With best wishes,
Joan

Subject: Employee Mentoring Schemes?
Dear colleagues,
Does your organisation run a mentoring programme for staff?
Having just completed mentoring three students recently and a Module in Mentoring at the University, I am interested in discovering if colleagues across the country have formal mentoring programmes for support or teaching staff. I believe that formal or informal mentoring has a lot of positive outcomes for both mentor and mentees.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Chris
