About Greater Peterborough UTC

About Greater Peterborough UTC

‘Creating the Workforce of Tomorrow’

’Greater Peterborough University Technical College (GPUTC) is a STEM specialist school currently for students aged 11 to 19. Located in Peterborough city centre, the £12 million school opened in September 2016 to help create the city’s future scientists, engineers, designers, architects and construction specialists of the future. UTC’s are secondary schools for young people that are sponsored by a university and local employers. They were set up by the government to encourage young people to study technical subjects and to give them the opportunity to learn the skills that employers are looking for.

GPUTC is a valued member of the Meridian Trust and as such benefits from a supportive network of leadership at senior and subject level and is fully integrated and accessing all support services such as HR and financial support. In 2022, the first year of year 7 students, GPUTC was oversubscribed with many parents wanting not only a smaller school for their child but also one which specialises in a STEM curriculum.  In Key Stage 4, which from 2023 will start in year 9, students can study separate sciences, engineering and the built environment (made up of architecture, design, surveying and construction) along with their core GCSE subjects. Students are also given the opportunity to pick from computer science, art and design and some humanities subjects all of which augment a STEM rich curriculum.  In year 12 students may commit themselves to, from 2023, T ’Levels in ‘Engineering and Manufacturing’ and ‘Health Care Science’ there will also be a traditional route of A Levels in such subjects as Maths, Science and Product Design.
