About UTC Reading

UTC Reading is a secondary school in Reading, classified by the DfE as a university technical college. Around 286 pupils aged 14 to 19 attend the school. In the most recent GCSE results, pupils achieved an average Attainment 8 score of 42.0, below the national average of 46. That marks an improvement of 1.3 points in its Attainment 8 score on the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of secondary schools nationally.

38% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in both English and maths, below the national average of about 45%. 57% achieved a standard pass (grade 4+) in English and maths. After Year 11, 92% of its leavers went on to education, an apprenticeship or work that they stayed in for at least two terms. Overall pupil absence was 12.9%. There are about 17.9 pupils per teacher. UTC Reading does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
