Lincoln UTC opened in September 2014, specialising in Science and Engineering. We provide a broad and balanced GCSE curriculum for students aged 14-16 as well as specialist studies in Engineering. At 16 students design their own pathway, selecting from an array of Cambridge Technical and A Level qualifications in Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science and associated subjects. Full details are available on the Curriculum pages of this website.
Performance Data
Lincoln UTC students achieved their first formal qualifications in the summer of 2016. Performance details can be found here:

This data has been contested with the DfE as there are inaccuracies: the outcome of this was confirmed in January 2017 but did not uphold our concerns.
The UTC has received an Ofsted Inspection in its second year of opening and the full report will be available once it has been published.

Ofsted Report 2017
Ofsted visited Lincoln UTC on 21 and 22 February. This is a usual procedure for a new school or college. We are pleased with the general findings of our report, particularly those relating to our 16 – 19 provision (the sixth form) and what is known as ‘Personal Development, Behaviour and Welfare’. Having already identified, through rigorous self-evaluation, several areas that require further development we are already addressing the issues that the inspection report indicates ‘requires improvement’.
We are delighted that the general tone is very positive and notes our significant progress and success in many areas.
