Community-based learning

Just look for your local authority then a quick check of the tick boxes showing what free services are provided with direct links. You can also use STEP’s interactive map to find your local community learning and development contact or key education contact in your area.
Improving assessment: We need you!
As an extension of the successful Digital Rapid Assessment Guide (DRAG) for nomadic pupils, STEP is currently developing a bespoke Rapid Assessment Guide for Adults (RAGA). The initiative aims to create a culturally appropriate and accessible tool to make quick assessments of new adult learners. Please get in touch with STEP if you would like to be involved in the design and development process.
