Open day Crewe E&D University Technical College

More than 200 students and parents attended the latest Crewe Engineering and Design University Technical College open evening.

The event held at Bentley Motors, allowed people to find out more about the different educational paths offered by the school, learn about the application process, and talk to partners supporting the UTC.

David Terry, principal of Crewe Engineering and Design UTC, said: “It’s vital we open our doors to young people to develop their love for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.

“The success of this latest event was a further indication that this region is filled with
extraordinary young people, who are preparing themselves for a bright future in engineering.

“The UTC will offer exciting and challenging learning experiences and give the future scientists, designers and engineers of tomorrow the ability to thrive in their chosen career path.

“I was delighted to meet many parents, students and members of the community and I look forward to help drive the educational offering in Crewe forward as one.”

A number of interactive displays were on hand for those interested in STEM subjects including an AON robot handshake, a 3D printer, remote control cars and the all-new Bentley Bentayga.

There are a limited number of places available for 14 to 18 year old students starting Year 10 and Year 12 from next September 2016.

Cllr Rachel Bailey, Cheshire East Council Cabinet member in charge of children and families, said: “I am delighted there is so much initial interest in the UTC, which is very promising indeed.

“The UTC will be a flagship educational institution that will help nurture the skills and experience of our young people for generations to come.”

“The council is fully behind the UTC and we are supporting our partners and working with all our local schools to promote it as widely as possible and deliver a workforce of young people who have the skills to match the needs of Cheshire East’s growing economy.”

Crewe Engineering and Design UTC will deliver courses alongside business and academic partners such as Bentley Motors, Manchester Metropolitan University, Siemens, Bosch, OSL Rail, General Electrics, Chevron Racing, and Optical 3D.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
