Year 10 and Year 11 study
The Year 10 and Year 11 curriculum is focused and responsive based on the needs of our employers and the subjects of Engineering and Computer Science that we specialise in.
When you join UTC Reading in Year 10, you be able to choose an Engineering or Computer Science specialist technical subject to study alongside the core subjects of English, Maths and Science, and one option subject from Business and Enterprise, Art and Design, a Level 2 IT Technical Qualification or Computer Science for Engineers.
Within your timetable you will also have sessions for Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education (PSHE), our Career and Futures Programme (see more here), sport, and finally an array of training and development opportunities that take place every Thursday afternoon to help enhance your skills and knowledge.
For Year 10 and 11 students, the timetable runs as follows:
Monday – Wednesday 08:45 – 16:00
Thursday – 08:45-15:00 (Training and Development runs from 15:00-17:00)
Friday – 08:45-15:00

GCSE study skills masterclass for parents
To help in the run-up to GCSE exam season for our Year 11 students, we asked Maximise Your Potential, a company specialising in study skills, to run a webinar to help parents support their children in the run up to and through the exams.
We know that not everyone could attend so wanted to share the headlines, key resources and main tips from Jeremy’s session. We have run sessions with Jeremy many times in some of our schools and feedback from the students has always been very positive, so we hope you find this useful.
