About University Technical College Norfolk
University Technical College Norfolk
Old Hall Road, Norwich
Norfolk
NR4 6FF
United Kingdom
University Technical Colleges are a new concept in education. They offer 14-19 year olds the opportunity to take a highly regarded, full time, technically-oriented course of study. They are equipped to the highest standard, sponsored by a university and offer clear progression routes into higher education or further learning in work.
The students combine hand and mind to learn in a very practical way, integrating national curriculum requirements with the technical and vocational elements. The UTC ethos and curriculum is heavily influenced by local and national employers who also provide support and work experience for students.
They are sub-regional, taking students from a wide geographical area. This reduces negative impact for any one local school in terms of student roll.
UTCs specialise in subjects that require technical and modern equipment, for example, engineering, product design, health sciences, construction, and land and environmental services.
However they all teach business skills and the use of ICT. The chosen specialism reflects the university's areas of excellence and the needs of local employers.
A fundamental principle of UTCs is that they do not judge students on their past performance. Students are given new opportunities and new ways of learning which allow them to achieve to a higher level than they may have done before.
