About Us
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 Northwest 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.

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.
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. The UTC is co-located with the Warrington Youth Zone in Warrington town centre. This new facility provides UTC staff and students access to state-of-the-art sports facilities.
