  • University Technology College for Plymouth Committee: Cabinet Date
    PLYMOUTH CITY COUNCIL Subject: University Technology College for Plymouth Committee: Cabinet Date: 21 February 2012 Cabinet Member: Councillor Samantha Leaves CMT Member: Director for People and the Director for Place Author: Gareth Simmons, Programme Director for Learning Environments Contact: Tel: 01752 307161, [email protected] Ref: Key Decision: Yes Part: I Executive Summary: In the Spring of 2011 the Secretary of State for Education announced that a number of University Technical Colleges (UTCs) would be developed across the country. Following this announcement an application process was developed for universities and colleges to submit bids for UTC funding. The closing date was mid June 2011. A consortium of Plymouth University, City College Plymouth - the College of Further Education and Plymouth City Council, developed a vision to promote employer led learning in Plymouth that would be delivered through a UTC. The University, who acted as lead sponsors, City College and leading employers formed a limited company in order to make a bid for a UTC based at a Devonport location. They were supported in this by, amongst others, Babcock Marine, Princess Yachts International, Plymouth Manufacturers Group, Plymouth Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Plymouth Federation of Small Businesses. On 10 October 2011 the Government announced that a number of UTCs would be taken forward including one in Plymouth. The announcement made clear that the Secretary of State hoped that Plymouth UTC would be opened in 2014, but there were possibilities of an earlier start in 2013. Plymouth University, Plymouth City College and Babcock Marine are developing the governance arrangements of what will become a UTC Academy Trust.
