Teacher of Mathematics

UTC Warrington opened in September 2016 and was first inspected by Ofsted in May 2019 and secured a ‘Good’ judgement in all areas. UTC Warrington aims to become an Outstanding institution by our next Ofsted inspection.

Our key focus is to support young people in preparing for the world of work, develop technical skills, and to find meaningful careers – apprenticeships, university or employment. Manchester Metropolitan University collaborated with employers such as Sellafield Ltd to create the UTC, providing students with valuable relationships and experiences within the STEM industry in the North West and beyond.

We are a school and sixth form, with a strong focus and vision that prepares students for a high-quality role within science, technology and engineering. Our students study academic subjects, with a range of GCSEs and post-16 qualifications. We also offer the opportunity for students to focus on developing their technical knowledge and skills and to work directly with the region’s employers. From September 2023 we began offering T-levels in engineering and manufacturing, construction design and surveying, laboratory sciences and digital support services. In preparation for the delivery of T-levels, the UTC is investing £1.7 million to further enhance its technical facilities.

Our dedicated personal development programme encourages students to challenge themselves by using their skills in listening, speaking, problem-solving, creativity, staying positive, aiming high, leadership and teamwork in all aspects of their UTC career. Combined with opportunities to take part in high-quality enrichment (cadets, NCS, student leadership, sport), our young people are ready for the world of work.

Our UTC has fantastic facilities and state-of-the-art equipment. Students have contact with industry professionals and teachers with strong industry experience, progressing onto world-class degrees and apprenticeship opportunities. We are incredibly proud of the destinations for our learners. The UTC is currently ranked 11th out of 2270 providers nationally for progression onto higher and degree apprenticeships. Employer engagement is a real strength of the UTC where they regularly support learners with live projects, master classes and meaningful industry placements.

UTCs are government-funded schools that teach 14–19-year-old students technical and scientific subjects with a new approach; they are educating the inventors, engineers, scientists and technicians of tomorrow.
