“
All our students have benefitted greatly from attending PSTT. The staff are brilliant. I would recommend this course to other schools.
The students who have been involved in the PSTT programme are incredibly positive about their experiences. I am noticing a difference in their levels of confidence and have no doubt that this programme is raising their aspirations, which is obviously the main aim.
The level of expertise and patience of the instructors has made engaging the students in learning a difficult skill very easy as it has fuelled the students’ keenness to attend week after week.
They are now more organised, more independent and have more self-belief in every task that they do. I have seen the student’s communication skills improve and seen great team building throughout.
