Ron Dearing UTC

Ron Dearing UTC is an outstanding school that means business. Situated in the centre of Hull, we specialise in ‘STEAM': Sciences, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths, delivered through a range of traditional GCSEs, A Levels, Level 2 and Level 3 academic, technical qualifications alongside professional qualifications. Our facilities are industry-standard and state-of-the-art, making us one of the most technologically advanced schools in the country. Working in partnership with the University of Hull and the region's leading employers, we provide our students with a unique, employer-led education that gives them the edge in terms of higher education, apprenticeships and employment opportunities. Our students have the unique opportunity to take the theory they learn and apply it to real projects designed and delivered by our University and Employer Partners. This both extends their theoretical understanding and, crucially, enables them to develop their personal, employability and technical skills in a real work environment. Our technical curriculum has a strong emphasis on renewables and carbon capture, reflecting the urgent demand for young people with the knowledge and skills to support industry to achieve Net Zero targets and minimise the catastrophic impact of climate change. Personal development at Ron Dearing UTC has equity with our qualifications. To play a valuable role in society, our students need to be well-rounded individuals with high expectations and aspirations. In addition to our academic and technical curriculum areas, our personal development curriculum creates opportunities to develop students' cultural awareness, personal and professional values, communication skills, teamwork, resilience and creativity. We care about our students and want them to be able to lead safe and happy lifestyles. Safeguarding and Health education is, therefore, extremely high priority.
