Following a full inspection in March, we have retained our ‘Good’ Ofsted rating. The inspection took place over two days on March 5 and 6 with the final report being published on April 25.
Inspectors stated the UTC to have a ‘professional and productive atmosphere’ where students and staff interact on ‘first name terms’. The report recognised our successful track record of students securing positive destinations by stating ‘the number of pupils moving onto high-level apprenticeships is notable’. Safeguarding arrangements were deemed effective, bullying is ‘not an issue at the UTC’ and staff are ‘proud to work at the UTC’.
Our next inspection is expected to take place within the next four years.
