Aylesbury UTC / Facilities

What makes Aylesbury UTC facilities great?

Aylesbury UTC facilities are unique compared to local schools. Our building was constructed and completed in 2013. The state-of-the-art facilities cost £10 million. Our facilities have the latest technology and equipment for students in Digital and Health & Social Care. Since joining MTOAT in November 2021, further investment has updated the facilities with the Merchant Taylors’ Foundation, who generously supported an IT Suite and in 2023, our brand new Health and Social Care Suite opened. This has realistic environments to simulate best possible learning for our students.

Community, Respect and Growth

In the first place, the facilities at Aylesbury UTC are clean, modern, and supportive for a fantastic learning environment. Equally important to each specialism is being surrounded by equipment that represents the working environment of their future work places.

Furthermore, the building enables our small community to be happy. Community is one of our main values, which is why we have an amazing social area. This area allows students to easily talk to each other and provides ample space to move around. This space also has access to the cafeteria where students can have access to a wide range of food at lunch and break.
