Rooted in traditional values of behaviour and respect, we evolve our practice to meet the changing needs of our environment, both locally and internationally. We promote authenticity and individuality while recognising that collaboration enables innovation and progress.

Our broad and balanced curriculum places a strong emphasis on STEM, with specialisms in engineering and computing. Underpinned by the International Baccalaureate philosophy, our inquiry-based approach to learning combines exceptional technical and academic education, enabling students to develop vital work-related and transferable skills. Our curriculum pathways span the IB MYP, GCSEs, A-levels, T-levels, and the IBCP, ensuring a coherent, future-focused educational journey.

Through partnerships with high-profile local and regional employers, students are introduced to real-world applications of their learning and the world of work.

“The innovative learning environment that we provide is often the first impression, but our community remains the lasting impression”. - Kevin Watson, Principal

“Leaders, governors and the trust have high expectations of pupils’ learning. Their close monitoring of the school’s work allows them to act swiftly to make any necessary improvements. Staff feel well supported in managing their workload. They appreciate that leaders look out for their well-being”. - Ofsted 2022

“We are a community; the relationships between staff and students are highly supportive and they appreciate those who show care for them. Our colleagues support each other to be better. I couldn’t imagine working anywhere else.” - Melanie, Lead Practitioner - English

“The Leigh UTC is a place where I started my teaching journey. I was completely new to teaching and started my journey as a learning mentor in January 2019, and since then it has been very developmental. I have learned so much through some of the amazing people who I work with. It feels like everyone genuinely wants you to be your best at the UTC and I love that.” - Zaeem, Director of Learning - Computer Science
