After a successful consultation and with the full support of the Baker Dearing Trust we are finally able to share this excellent news, which means that young people who are passionate about STEM are now able to come to our school at an even earlier age. We are the school of choice for the engineers, architects, scientists and designers of the future in Peterborough and the surrounding area. Our innovative approach prioritises employer-led enrichment activities, work experience and personalised careers’ guidance, alongside technical and traditional qualifications at GCSE and A Level standard. "Expanding our age range to include year 9 means we are able to offer our specialist curriculum to even more of Peterborough's young engineers, architects and designers."

GPUTC Principal, Mr Bisley
To ensure students are well prepared for their GCSE exams, Year 9 students will study English, Maths and Science in a way that is linked closely to their project-based challenges. Teachers will focus on closing any knowledge and skills gaps, embedding and accelerating students’ learning, ensuring a smooth and purposeful transition from their previous schooling, so all students are ready to start their GCSE programmes in earnest at the start of Year 10. Students will also have one hour of PE and one hour of personal development per week.
Applications are now open for Year 9 as well as Year 10 and 12 for a September 2020 start. For more information visit www.gputc.com, call 01733 715950, email applications@gputc.com and follow our socials @GPUTC
