Engineering UTC Northern Lincolnshire
Scunthorpe, DN15 6TA · North Lincolnshire · secondary school
12th of 14 secondary schools in North Lincolnshire we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 0.9/10 against 672 of them, against 0.9/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 27.1 · 12 | 30% | 0.36 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.89 · 4 | 25% | 0.10 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 38.2 · 14 | 10% | 0.14 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. The school is rated Good by Ofsted (inspected 2023-09). In 2024/25, 27.1% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 38.2, against a national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.89 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (0.9 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join 3D Print, Coding, Chess, and Watercolour Clubs, or play football, badminton, and basketball. An after-school club is available.
Getting in. There are 322 pupils in a school with 600 places, leaving 278 spare places. The school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to close the gap between their current attainment and the national median? What specific support is available for students aiming for higher grades in English and maths? How does the school utilise its significant spare capacity to maintain high teaching standards?
