Dear Parent,
I am incredibly proud to be the Principal of Thomas Telford UTC which I believe is a magical school which offers fantastic opportunities for young people across Wolverhampton and I would like you to consider us for your child’s secondary education. We recognise that this is a very important time in your child’s life and your decision on the choice of school can be life defining.
Following a new collaboration with Thomas Telford School, we opened our doors to our first cohort of Year 7 students last September. This cohort have excelled at the UTC, even with the unprecedented global pandemic, and continue to thrive academically through their learning experiences within school. It should be noted that during this short time we have become one of the most over-subscribed schools in the country.
Unfortunately, following consultation with Public Health, we are extremely disappointed to have made the difficult decision to cancel the planned Parent Information Events for September and October. Attendance at one of these events is normally compulsory as it provides me with an opportunity to talk to you about our ethos and high expectations around conduct and attendance, and to ensure that you will support these values.
Parents can find out more about the school by visiting our website www.thomastelfordutc.com where you will find a video presentation that also provides a glimpse of our state-of-the-art learning environment. Also, be aware that the school is expanding with new teaching and sports facilities which will be completed in time for your child’s Year 7 start.
If you have any further questions please contact the UTC on admissions@thomastelfordutc.com
Genuinely, I do believe that Thomas Telford UTC represents a fantastic opportunity for the young people of Wolverhampton; I would encourage you to apply.
Yours faithfully
Av Gill
Principal
