The University Technical College (UTC) is a specialist engineering school preparing students for careers in the rail industry and other engineering pathways. The UTC has strong links with the Rail Forum Midlands and the Vice-Chair of RFM is a governor. Students can join the UTC in Year 9, Year 10 or Year 12, and study GCSEs and A Levels alongside their engineering specialism. The UTC has state-of-the-art facilities designed with Rolls-Royce and works with a variety of employer partners, including Bombardier, Toyota and University of Derby. The aim is to give students the personal, professional and technical skills to succeed in the modern engineering industry, whether as apprentices or through the university route.
