Frequently asked questions

Is there car parking onsite for the event?

We have a limited number of spaces in our UTC car park so if you can't find a space, please park on the road outside the UTC.

Am I allowed to leave my old school?

The government sends out a letter to families each year, explaining that students may switch schools at age 14 if they choose to. This letter is sent out to parents in September each year and then families can apply for a place at UTC Oxfordshire.

Are free school meals available?

All pupils eligible for free school meals have that entitlement.

Are there any fees?

No – UTCs are free to attend.

What is the reason to start in Year 10?

Some students know early on what they want to do in their career, so why not start developing their future plans now? The extended UTC offering provides a whole year of extra teaching for every 2 years the student is with us due to the longer working day, giving more time for additional skills.
