UTC Warrington at a glance

Located in Warrington, UTC Warrington is a secondary school, classified by the DfE as a university technical college. The school educates roughly 296 pupils aged 14 to 19. The school's average Attainment 8 score in the latest GCSE results was 23.0 — well below the national average (national average: 46). Its Attainment 8 score has fallen by 1.2 points compared with 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.

14% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in both English and maths, well below the national average of about 45%. 22% achieved a standard pass (grade 4+) in English and maths. After Year 11, 79% of its leavers went on to education, an apprenticeship or work that they stayed in for at least two terms. Overall pupil absence was 21.6%. There are about 15.4 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 47% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. UTC Warrington 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.
