Lincoln UTC

We were delighted to take some of our Year 10 Engineering students to celebrate International Women in Engineering Day at Siemens Energy.

The day included:
• A tour of the Siemens Energy facility
• Learning more about Siemens Energy and the work they do
• Inspiring sessions on Women in Engineering
• Exploring career opportunities at Siemens Energy

One highlight of the day was the team competition to build a structure using straws and marshmallows — and we’re proud to say that the Lincoln UTC team took the win!

It was a fantastic day all round, celebrating innovation, engineering, teamwork, and the opportunities available for the next generation of engineers. Well done to all students involved for representing the school so brilliantly.

What a fantastic couple of days at the Lincolnshire Show!

Not only did we have a brilliant time on our stand meeting so many prospective students and families and talking all things Lincoln UTC, but we also had the opportunity to take part in the LAS Schools Challenge once again which was on climate leaders of the future.

We are incredibly proud to share that this year we achieved 2nd place

A huge well done to everyone involved — your hard work, teamwork and enthusiasm truly paid off. Thank you to everyone who came to visit us; it was wonderful to meet so many future UTC students and share what makes our community so special.

We’re already looking forward to next year!

We were incredibly proud to hear about Lincoln UTC Student Camilla’s recent visit to Grimsby Horizon Youth Zone, where she had the fantastic opportunity to meet King Charles III while representing the Army Cadet Force.

During the visit, His Majesty was shown the inspiring work being delivered at the centre and the positive impact it is having on young people in the local community.

This was an amazing opportunity and a memorable experience that recognised Camilla’s commitment and involvement through the Army Cadet Force.

Well done, Camilla — a brilliant achievement and an experience to remember
