Department for Education written question – answered at on 6 April 2017.
Lord Allen of Kensington

To ask Her Majesty’s Government how they intend to encourage more universities to become involved in the university technical colleges programme.
Lord Nash
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education
We outlined in the Schools that Work for Everyone consultation our proposals for universities having a greater involvement in the establishment and sponsorship of schools including UTCs. The consultation ended on 12 December 2016. The results of the consultation and the department’s response will be published on GOV.UK in Spring 2017.
We have awarded a grant to the Baker Dearing Educational Trust to provide advice, guidance and support to universities and others wishing to submit applications to establish University Technical Colleges (UTCs).
