Ron Dearing UTC

RDUTC is a school that means business. We are situated in the centre of Hull, next to Hull New Theatre. 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 and employment opportunities and fast-tracks them into exciting and lucrative careers.

The RDUTC curriculum is designed to:

‘do education differently’ to ensure that every student, including those disaffected with traditional education, fulfils their academic, social and creative potential and becomes the best person they can be;
maximise opportunities for students to apply theoretical learning to real-life problems and employer-led projects;
ensure all students develop high quality verbal, written, visual and digital communication skills;
ensure all students acquire sound personal, professional and entrepreneurial knowledge and skills;
develop a digitally talented workforce to address the STEAM skills gap;
contribute to the economic development of the Humber region by providing highly skilled local young people to work in the engineering, digital, health care, financial and creative sectors;
engage young women with qualifications and careers in STEAM industries to address the gender gap.
