Editorial Comment:

The HE sector has had an ambivalent attitude to guidance and learner support. A paradox exists that on the one hand the view persists that students entering HE ought to be able to make effective decisions about learning, deal with academic and personal problems and function as autonomous learners without specialist guidance but on the other the tradition of personal tutoring still exists based on the belief that students benefit from one-to-one guidance.
