Apply for a University Technical College place

University Technical Colleges (UTC) admit pupils directly into year 10. At GCSE they offer a similar curriculum to secondary schools including the basics of English and Maths as well as their specialist subject. Pupils can remain at a UTC until year 13.

UTCs are set up by universities and businesses to specialise in one or two technical subjects.

You'll need to apply directly to the college your child wants to move into.
