South Devon UTC Phone Number

University Technical Colleges were first proposed by Lord Kenneth Baker, a former British Conservative politician and Secretary of State for Education, as part of a national effort to enhance technical education in the United Kingdom. The aim was to bridge the gap between academic learning and the practical skills required by industry. UTCs emphasize a blend of rigorous academic study and vocational training, fostering links with local industries and universities to create a workplace-like environment rather than a traditional school atmosphere.
