PAL provides social and study-centred support to help students persist with their first year and to progress to their second year.*PO   Evidence basefStudies in the UK suggest higher grades of PAL participants compared with non-participants though methodological problems with  self-selection bias PAL model well trailed experience and outcomes of a number of UK schemes elucidated in the literature reported benefits to yr1 students and Student Leaders J  Evidence base .HUGE number of US studies offer evidence of outcomes of US equivalent scheme, including convincing longitudinal data of effects for grades and retention Early indicators from Bournemouth that scheme beneficial to participants and PAL Leaders. Research underway to assess effects of PAL in more detail.// Challenges of PALNRequires careful planning prior to implementation Efforts to ensure attendance Sustaining programme - during the academic year and long-term  Selling PAL to staff  "Resourcing and succeeding with PAL##nTo implement PAL you will need& Support from the School and Teaching Team Effective timetabling of PAL sessions Integration into course Activities provided for PAL sessions Student Leaders recruited and trained and money to pay them ( ~ 300 per year each) Regular staff contact with Leaders (~30 mins/ week) 6!
