Our Partners

Steps with Theera and St Andrews International School are working together to create pathways which enable all learners to excel. Following a range of BTEC qualifications from the UK that promote skills for employment, our learners experience hands-on learning in a real work environment. BTEC Hospitality and Catering is one of the qualifications we use and this offers learners the opportunity to come and work in a real kitchen, serve food, make coffees and take orders, all whilst following health and safety regulations. The learn by doing approach allows us to see their confidence, communication skills, and self-esteem grow. In addition, Steps has a coffee shop inside the primary campus (Sukhumvit 71) which serves the school community with healthy snacks and much needed coffee! It also provides a safe environment for our trainees to gain on the job work experience and connect with a new community of support.

In addition, they have employed one of our trainees part time and are committed to supporting adults with special needs access employment. WCB offers web (you can write this better than me!)
