UTCs play a vital role in giving young people the technical skills and real-world experience they need to succeed. By connecting education directly with employers, these schools offer students a genuine line of sight into future careers - particularly through the kind of high-quality apprenticeships that lead to good jobs in the growth sectors of the economy. This is a tried and tested model, and one that is much needed across more schools.
