Confidentiality

• This should be discussed at the first meeting, as
  part of agreeing the basis of the relationship.
• The normal expectation is that everything
  discussed is confidential. Where there is a
  serious problem that needs a wider consultation,
  the necessary consultation should be agreed in
  advance.
• Mentees must have confidence that mentors will
  not divulge any aspect of the mentorship
  discussions to line managers or others.
