School Description

Daventry University Technical College (UTC) opened in September 2013. It offers a combination of academic and technical qualifications for 14–19 year olds. Students study up to eight core GCSEs as well as up to two additional GCSE options alongside the specialist subjects of electrical and mechanical engineering or construction engineering and design. A third specialist subject of environmental sustainability is due to be launched in September 2016. Advanced apprenticeships and/or A level courses are offered in the sixth form. The UTC’s lead sponsor is Moulton College and the co-sponsor is the University of Northampton. In addition, a wide range of industrial partners are associated with the UTC including Cummins and Bloodhound SSC. In September 2013, 96 students started in Year 10. Students were admitted to Year 12 in September 2014. Most students join the UTC from several schools in the local area. A few students move from schools in neighbouring counties. In terms of the number of students, the UTC is small compared with most secondary schools. The proportion of students joining the UTC with low prior attainment is much higher than the national average. The proportion of students joining the UTC with high prior attainment is much lower than the national average. Almost four fifths of the students are boys. This is a much higher proportion than the national average for secondary schools. The proportion of students eligible for support from the pupil premium is similar to the national average. This is additional government funding to support students known to be eligible for free school meals and those looked after by the local authority. The proportion of disabled students and those who have special educational needs is well above the national average. In addition to the support received from the sponsors and some industrial partners, the UTC works with staff from several local schools for the moderation of assessments. A small number of students attend alternative provision on a full-time basis at Rushmere Academy, Cobblers Study Centre, Northampton College, and Edubase on-track education centre. Students at the UTC have not yet completed public examinations. Therefore it is not possible to comment on whether or not the UTC meets the government’s floor standards. These set the minimum expectations for pupils’ attainment and progress at the end of Year 11.
