Curriculum
Liverpool Life Sciences UTC provides pupils with a unique educational experience. Students are encouraged to take a core curriculum of GCSEs and/or A Levels, plus a range of vocational qualifications. Business partners help to shape the curriculum by defining their skills requirements and providing projects, masterclasses and training that meets these needs.

Key Stage 4 & GCSE Options
As a specialist school, we don’t limit the options that you can choose to study in Year 10 – in fact, we provide all the national curriculum subjects, plus a whole lot more.
Sixth Form
We use pathways to help you visualise the best route into the career you’re interested in, and support you in making the right study choices at Year 12.
PBL
Employer projects are a cornerstone of the Liverpool Life Sciences UTC curriculum. Our students have the unique opportunity to take the theory they learn and apply it to ‘real’ projects designed and delivered by our employer partners.
Culture & Wellbeing
Our culture programme actively engages students both locally and nationally, through a series of sessions designed to build upon aspects of culture, faith, finance, Latin and the local community, and our students’ role in it. Our wellbeing curriculum incorporates a varied programme of physical education classes for our students, including dance, gymnastics, field games and invasion games.
PSHE
The UTC invests in Jigsaw – a whole-school approach to PSHE / Health & Well-being, which includes statutory RSHE (England DfE 2019). Every year group studies the same learning theme at the same time, really spiralling the learning up through the age groups. Read more here
Enrichment
Enrichment activities are key to building our students’ experience of the world outside the classroom. Designed to enhance applications for future study, apprenticeship and job applications, our enrichment activities are fun, compelling and diverse, allowing students to build their knowledge whilst building their confidence.
