At South Bank UTC we are STEM focused, and our specialisms are designed with our sponsors to ensure we are giving our students the best career opportunities. We focus on areas of growth and excel in teaching the skills needed to thrive in jobs, higher education or apprenticeships.
Engineering
Engineering is about much more than building things: it is creative, practical and sims to make the world a better place for future generations. Our Engineering curriculum has been designed to ensure our students are ready for the future in an ever changing world. Our industry standard labs and workshops give a unique opportunity for our students to excel with hands on engineering skills alongside academic STEM learning. We facilitate the development of personal skills as well as academic and technical knowledge, with projects and trips designed to ensure our students are highly employable. Professional qualifications are on offer within our CPD and enrichment programmes and our project-based curriculum, developed with our employer sponsors, provides real life experiences alongside core subject knowledge.
Health
Healthcare is bigger than you think. There are 350 different NHS careers, ranging from Doctors, Nurses and Midwives to Physios, Educators, Engineers and Technicians, not to mention the many other jobs in the wider health and health tech sectors. Our Health curriculum is designed to set students up with the skills and knowledge needed to pursue their dream career and make a real difference to the world.
We offer opportunities that traditional schools can’t.
Facilities. We are STEM focused, meaning students have the chance to learn scientific theory alongside practical and hands on work in advanced labs and health-specific teaching suites.
Employer sponsorship. We are sponsored by two NHS trusts, giving our students opportunities for work experience, placements and access to real healthcare environments with real health professionals. Our sponsors work with us to design and deliver projects that give students hands-on experience with solving real world problems. This practical approach to learning and experience of the work place gives our students the edge.
University sponsorship. We are proud to be part of the LSBU Group. London South Bank University has trained half of all Nurses in London. Our students will have the opportunity to be interviewed and offered places in Year 12 to oversubscribed health degree courses at the University. This unique opportunity puts our students ahead of others.
