Dear All,
Once again, as we navigate our way out of the COVID 19 pandemic, we have found college life
significantly shaped by the adaptations we have needed to make.
The first 8 weeks of term were given over to remote learning where our focus, through high quality
remote teaching and learning, was to ensure that students didn’t fall behind in their learning. Our
approach to this was through a combination of live and recorded lessons and independent study with
students following their usual timetable delivered through our teachers’ expert use of Google
Classroom. We are very proud of the way in which the team have adapted their practice to ensure we
were able to continue with high quality teaching and learning.
Once back in college from the 8th March we have been impressed at how well our students have
adjusted back to college life and face to face teaching in classrooms and workshops. Students and staff
have also needed to adjust to the health and safety guidance for COVID 19 which requires the wearing
of face coverings in all areas of the building and the initial requirement to carry out lateral flow tests in
college. Testing in college has been a significant challenge and it is to the credit of both staff and
students that it has been carried out so effectively. Converting the college assembly hall into a
virus mass testing centre is no mean feat. Once again testament to the unique skill set and ethos that
exists at the UTC.
I hope you enjoy this Spring term edition of our newsletter “The Pipeline” which once again gives an
excellent insight into life at Scarborough UTC.
Thank you for your support.
Mr. Kilgour

 HEALTH PATHWAY

 Nationally and regionally, there is a shortage of people with the right skills progressing into the health
 and care sectors. This is confirmed in the paper
 ‘Creating the workforce of the future: a new collaborative approach for the NHS and colleges in
 England’ where Lord Victor Adebowale Chair, NHS Confederation said that:
 ‘The response to COVID-19 has shone a light on the commitment, skills and passion of our health and
 care workforce and the pride with which they, and indeed the wider country, take in their work. Yet
 this was a workforce under severe strain before the pandemic. In England alone, the NHS is currently
 operating with over 90,000 vacancies, while a quarter of all social care staff are on zero-hours con-
 tracts. It is not surprising that sector leaders have been highlighting the need to meet existing and fu-
 ture workforce needs as their biggest challenge for some time.
 That this issue is now more prominent in light of COVID-19 is certain. The virus has both increased the
 pressure on the health and care sector and focused minds on the sheer breadth of recruitment chal-
 lenges we face, and for all role types. We also know that the scale of the workforce challenge is only
 going to increase. As 2.3 million more people reach working age, it is predicted that we will need 1.3
 million of them to choose health and social care as a career by 2033/34 if the sector is to meet de-
 mand.’
 This document also emphasises the need for more nurses:
 ‘While the NHS struggles to fill vacancies across a number of roles, particular attention has repeatedly
 been drawn to the nursing workforce. The NHS People Plan will be required to push on with delivering
 the government’s promise to deliver 50,000 extra frontline nurses for the NHS in England by 2024/25.’
 Recruiting health staff is an ongoing problem for the local NHS trusts. The NHS is the biggest employer
 in Scarborough and the surrounding areas.
 There is no specialist provision for 14-16 year olds in the Scarborough and Ryedale area for curriculum
 choices in the health and care sectors.
 There is a real need in the North Yorkshire area to ensure that young people develop the right skills
 and qualifications for the jobs available. For example, looking at some high level data provided NHS
 Human Resources on the current vacancies across the east coast for the hospital (Scarborough and
 Bridlington Hospitals) there are:

•     Registered nurse vacancies – 100
•     Doctor vacancies – 35
•     Support Worker vacancies – 30
•     Estates & Facilities vacancies (predominantly Hotel Services) – 30
•     Healthcare Scientist vacancies – 10
•     Allied Health Professionals (predominantly Physios and Radiographers) – 10

Considering all of this compelling data we have taken the exciting decision to add a third specialism
to the UTCs technical curriculum in the form of Health for students to join us in year 10 and year 12
from September 2021. If you would like to join us or find out more please visit our website:

EMPLOYER ENGAGEMENT & PROJECT BASED LEARNING @SUTC
Despite the impact of Covid-19, and the consequent lockdown, on our employer partners, many have
continued to do what they can to work with us this term to enhance student experience through a
variety of employer engagement activities, including mentoring sessions, masterclasses and industrial
visits.
CAREER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME – We currently have Y12 students that have successfully
applied for placements to work with Unison, Anglo American, GCHQ and Osprey. Those students
working with GCHQ will be embarking on individual soft skills training sessions after Easter, with those
students working with Unison already taking the opportunity offered to visit the Unison site for tech-
nical training in systems and control and CAD.
MENTORING – Many of our Y13 CDP placement employers couldn’t continue with their commitment
during this difficult time, so we have recruited four graduates from various UK locations that are
currently mentoring students. Their experience ranges from nuclear engineering to medicine; the
opportunity to talk virtually to these graduates from around the country has been highly beneficial for
the students involved, be that through interview technique recommendations or discussing what to
expect from the University experience
CAD MASTERCLASSES – Unison engineers continue to support our KS5 students through the provision
of CAD masterclasses, including a drop-in support session every Friday afternoon.
PROJECT BASED LEARNING – Severfield continue to support students studying Material Science
through the bridge design project; students are now at the prototyping and development stage
involving the modelling and refining of their bridge designs. BStreamlined are continuing to support
us through the York Minster stonemasonry project with planning undertaken this term; the project is
due to start with students at the end of April. Flamingoland are also planning to continue with their
technical ride guides project with the English team at that time. In addition, our Y12 Mechanical
Design students have recently started their final assignments involving the redesign of a DSE console
unit; DSE engineers will be visiting the group to offer them feedback with respect to their designs next
term.
NEW EMPLOYER SPONSOR – We are delighted that Northern Power Grid joined our SUTC employer
sponsor team this term. They are funding the purchase of a three phase electrical kit to support AC
systems design units of study, and plan to work with us as a part of the CDP, PBL and careers events.
Planning of their contribution to our employer engagement opportunities commences during the
week after the Easter break.
Once again we thank our employer sponsors for their valuable support, and for giving students at
Scarborough UTC a truly unique experience.

  This term our students commemorated the 76th anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz and we
  remembered the deaths of over 6 million people due to the intolerance and hatred of the Nazi
  regime. Our focus was on the thoughts of Victor Frankl an Auschwitz survivor and now psychiatrist
  “When we are no longer able to change our situation we are challenged to change ourselves”.
  Our students were challenged to create a poem or report about the Holocaust and we would like to
  share some of our favourites:
                                       FROM DARKNESS INTO LIGHT
  Fear spread amongst the Jews
  Rewarding those who gave us up
  Officers demanded to see our identification documents
  Marched us in fear down the street to the ghettos

  Dreams of our future taken from us
  An atmosphere of pure dread and fear
  Rounded up like cattle in the dead of the night
  Kicked and beaten by soldiers laughing

  No one had the courage to speak out
  Exhaustion sets in from walking miles to the camps
  Separated from our families, children ripped from the arms of their screaming parents
  Starving and dying, only the strong would survive

  In silence women, children and the elderly await their fate
  No air to breathe, sterilisation to rid the world of Jews were Hitler’s orders
  Thousands of people suffering, enduring torture and disease
  Orphans draped in striped pyjamas crying silently all alone

  Liberation of the camps finally came when the Russian Red army defeated the German soldiers
  Imprisoned no more, strangers lighting the way with kindness
  Germany finally defeated, we were free
  Hope in our hearts that we had survived, but sadness for those who we had lost
  Tears shed each year when we remember those who were murdered for who they were, all standing
  together against prejudice and hatred.

  Help those who need it

  Or you’ll get nothing in return

  Learn about different religions

  Or you won't have any understanding

  Celebrate freedom for the people that suffered

  And appreciate what they had to go through

  Understanding what they went through

  Written by Connor Cowling (Y11)

  Mr. Connell led assemblies remembering the lives of those who lived through the Holocaust and what
  we can learn from them.

  FRIDAY ENRICHMENT—'BOOKS, BOARD GAMES, BISCUITS AND A BREW'
  The students have decided that over the two hours they will read for 1 hour and also participate in
  games such as Dominoes and Chess. Students have been encouraged to bring an appropriate
  board game in to college if they wish.
  The plan for this term is a group read of a classic- yet to be revealed - followed by an hour of free
  reading in a relaxed environment. What I can say about the group read is that we will be joining
  with the Local History enrichment group and setting out on a trip that links to the book once
  lockdown is eased; I am very excited for this.
  We are always looking to add books to our Reading Hub - indeed we now have a second bookshelf
  filled! - but appreciate any books you may wish to donate to the college.

This term we marked the global bicentenary celebration of the late Romantic poet John Keats.

Events took place all over the world and of course here at the Scarborough UTC, we do not miss
opportunities to get directly involved in such cultural events!

John Keats is a poet we study at GCSE, and all of Y10 and Y11 have really enjoyed learning about his
legacy and exploring his poem To Autumn, which is readily voted as a National favourite poem of all
time!

So, how did we get involved?

Well, students had the opportunity of hearing from scholar Rob Shakespeare from the Keats
Museum in London who is an expert in Keats' life and poetry. We even got a 'shout-out' from him
https://youtu.be/rkByt5bW4zw: he was delighted that a school was so interested.

Students also had the opportunity of listening to the exclusive BBC Radio 4 drama "Writ in Water"
written to mark the bicentenary and follows the last weeks of Keats' life.

I was so impressed with the empathetic responses our students have demonstrated in their enriching
study of John Keats.

Now, I am aware that we specialise in STEM here at the Scarborough UTC, but as ever English remains
at the heart of everything! So an extremely exciting and innovative project was undertaken by world
physicists to recreate an accurate CGI of John Keats himself and recreating his actual voice! This was
achieved by using his life and death masks that were then inputted using CAD-a system our students
use every day here! They used science to recreate his larynx to replicate the tones of his voice,
followed by historical facts about accent and dialect at the time of his writing in 1816.

Our students got a huge shout out from the Digital Archaeology Society, and physicists during the live
reveal on Tuesday 23rd of February at 6 pm. The physicists loved the fact that although our students
are primarily engineers, they are also lovers of poetry-in particular John Keats. They found it inspiring
that we were shaping a new generation where science and literature work together. It is so wonderful
to engage with global specialists and have our humble work here at the Scarborough UTC recognised!

Well done, everyone!

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT - A POEM BY MISS ATKINSON

Debrief:
With open hearts, we locked the doors.
Like soldiers gone before, we pledged our war.
But how do you fight with what you cannot see?
With unity, tenacity; with solidarity.
Though small in numbers; fighting blind,
On we went caring, sharing and protecting.
Shining on one another
As the darkness seeped in and covered the sun.
Soothing one another
As The guttural cries and panicked breaths suffocated the last echoes of laughter.
Loving one another
When the silence came.
What should we say? What should we think? How were we meant to feel...how are we meant to now?
Today is no Bell for Armistice:
Still we live side by side with our invisible enemy.
Still we mourn the loss of those taken too soon and we
Wonder
how different it might have been.
But we are the Carers,
Our country’s new Protectors.
We honour the rights of all those invested in our care;
Covid 19 will not lay us bare.
Saint Cecilia’s is family, our lives intertwined.
With love like this,
We win the war because true families are always worth fighting for.

For Reflection Day marking the start of the first lockdown.

This was written by Will Paddock after watching Kate Humble's programme Coastal Britain in

Ravenscar, and other parts of the Cleveland Way up to Scarborough. Then in last week's enrichment

very keen to make up for time away. The teams have been preparing their verbal presentations
including presenting to a veteran team who won the verbal presentation award at World Finals two
years running!
Both SBA Avidity and Zenith have been undertaking complex computational fluid dynamic testing to
determine the aerodynamic profiles of their cars, physical wind tunnel testing and live track testing to
determine what developments can be made to make their cars faster and more streamlined.
SBA Avidity Racing has been working very closely with the Heslerton based BDC Machinery to develop
highly accurate ways of assembly and setting of key components such as wheel bearings, wings, and
wheels. The team has also had a novel face-to-face meeting with their partners at IGUS UK to discuss

ELECTRONICS
Reaching the end of a disrupted term, it has been superb to complete some practical skills building
projects with Year 10, and get stuck into some circuit prototyping as well.
Systems Control students have excelled in practical circuit building and analysis this term - albeit with
a reduced workshop time. When learning about electronic principles, the relationship between
various electrical quantities, such as charge, voltage and current - is invisible, like the wind to some
extent - visible only because of the "work" which the electrical charge does. Building and testing
circuits enables students to learn for themselves what these principles look like in reality. Testing with
multimeters enables problem solving and fault finding.
The brilliant thing for students working on these tasks and learning about them is that fault-finding
and troubleshooting is part of the learning - and it is a key learning outcome in two of our Systems
Control units - both knowing how to test circuits, and knowing methods of fault finding. This really
builds resilience in our learners - because, as in life - sometimes things do not always work first time!
Students concentrated hard for sustained periods whilst building their timing circuits - in this case a
single pulse timer: the sort of circuit which may trigger a security light, a warning sound, or a timer for
a certain task to be completed in. Students have taken up their practical learning with a positive
energy and purposeful focus - which makes learning effective going forwards.
Year 10 students have recently completed a logic based alarm circuit, which uses logic gates to trigger
and alarm and with another timer made from logic gates that create an oscillator to make a piezo
buzzer activate. Again, they have had a lot of practical skills built in, such as splicing wires and adding
insulated components on flying leads.
After Easter, students will begin the Computer Aided Design aspect of their coursework for R114 -
Simulate, Construct and Test Circuits - for which this hands-on experience has been the ideal
preparation. I'm so pleased for them to be back learning in this fantastic environment which is
Scarborough UTC.
 Year 12 and 13 Electronic and Electrical students have also had a period of exemplifying their
 understanding of using a wide range of semiconductor devices - LCS for example here seen using
 one of his independent study periods investigating operational amplifiers to compare different input
 voltages and signal an output when a reference value is exceeded.

 COMBINED CADET FORCE

 After working hard in the months leading up to Christmas a number of Scarborough UTC RN CCF
 Cadets were successful in gaining a promotion.

 Cadets on joining are classed as Ordinary Cadets and work their way up through a structured
 curriculum to achieve a high rank. This rank structure mirrors the Royal Navy Rank Structure to a
 certain degree.

 I would like to congratulate the following students who have achieved the next rank up.

 Ordinary Cadets Aaron Boston and Alex Grace completed the One Star cadet rank and have been
 awarded the one star epaulette. They have now started working towards their two star rank.

 One Star Cadets Rocco Anderson, Jamie Moon, Julija Medvedeva, Evie Lawson and Jake Edmondson
 all completed their Two Star Rank and they two were awarded their respective rank epaulettes. They
 will now be working towards their Three Star rank.

 The cadets were awarded their new rank by Mr Kilgour, Principal at an award ceremony on the
 12th of March 2021. The Cadets paraded outside the front of the UTC and after initial inspection by
 Officers S/Lt Sowersby and Lt Woolley they were inspected and spoken to by Mr Kilgour.

 The cadets should be very proud as the curriculum they work from is based on classroom and practical
 skills based on Naval Skills. Even if the cadets do not wish to go into the Navy the skills are vital as
 part of Life Skills that will help in either Further Education or Beyond.

 Cadets is not all serious. It is about having fun. A Classroom lesson taught by one of the cadets, Jake
 Edmondson on Buoyage was a valuable lesson for all. Jake, working on his three star is able to
 develop his teaching and mentoring role (as will the other cadets working on their three star). The
 cadets were lucky enough to learn from Jake's own experiences. We all learned and had fun at the
 same time.

 Over the next few weeks, the cadets will be working on their Duke of Edinburgh Awards - Planning
 and Carrying out a beach clean. Check out DofE at www.DofE.org if you are interested in gaining
 valuable skills for life.

 Kayaking and Aerial access at Go Ape are planned for May. Camps and Courses will be attended by
 cadets in the coming months too - Sailing, Powerboating, Fieldcraft and Leadership courses are all be-
 ing applied for. All subsidised by the Navy.

 The cadets can offer valuable skills for you in later life and you can have a lot of fun in the
 learning. Fancy getting involved? Speak to Mr. Woolley or Mr. Faunt in the CCF Office. You will have
 opportunities to access all sorts of skills and have fun - and it is subsidised too.

COVID 19

We are delighted with how well the testing has gone in college. The students have
participated with maturity enabling a reduced risk of Covid spread in the college.
A big thank you to all those involved in the testing process as well as staff who supervised the students.
Key personnel were Miss Riley, Mrs. Page, Mr. Maclean, Mr. Wheelhouse and Mrs. Ellis. It was a great
team effort.
We will be disbanding the hall as a testing area over the Easter break and setting up a smaller setup so
we have the facility to test in college in line with the government guidelines. We are going to set up a
meeting room to give us the facility to support the small number of students who may need to carry
out their tests in college.

COVID TESTING KITS
Your child has been issued with two more home testing kits for use over the
Easter break. Please remember to test twice (preferably Sunday & Wednesday or Monday &
Thursday to give an even spread) and then report the results through NHS trace system. You also need
to inform the college of the test and result so please use the Google form we have created to
report https://forms.gle/H3GJqvDCyKQ71fod6

COVID REPORTING
If your child becomes unwell with Covid symptoms during the Easter break please contact the NHS to
book a PCR test. If it is positive within the first 6 days you need to report this to
college in line with government guidance as there is action we need to take to reduce risk to the school
and wider community. Please ring 07934429874 and report to Mr. Connell, this is up to and including
Thursday 1st April 2021. Any queries regarding this please contact us prior to breaking up.

FREE SCHOOL MEAL VOUCHERS
We have scheduled vouchers to be released to you week commencing 29th March and week
commencing 5th April through Wonde voucher scheme. There is an additional sum of £20 for the
fortnight on top of the usual £15 per week that has been allocated by NYCC. Parent/carers will receive
two vouchers for £25 to cover the Easter holiday period.

 ROYAL NAVY CHALLENGE

For the Royal Navy Challenge (now taking place 2022) the design brief is to create a vessel capable of
retrieving various objects from the sea bed, the vessel must be able to navigate around obstacles and
against conflicting currents.
For this challenge we are sailing uncharted waters (for SUTC) as in the hull and deck of the vessel is
made of carbon fibre composite with marine grade stainless steel for the well and deck supports.
The lifting mechanism is made from marine grade stainless steel with the shoulder and elbow joints
being articulated and powered by high torque waterproof servo motors with a Stainless steel grabber
mechanism powered hydraulically, a master cylinder delivering 35kg of both extension and retraction
to two slave cylinders via high pressure Festo hose.
The vessel will have a minimum crew of two at any one time, one crew member with the
responsibility of navigation, avoiding obstacles, and taking into account the powerful currents. The
second crew member will be responsible for operating the lifting and retrieval mechanism, and
depositing the retrieved (priceless) items onto a holding area on the vessels deck.
The propulsion systems are still being discussed, but will probably consist of both steerable
submersed ‘pods’ (eliminating the need for rudders) and bow/side and stern thrusters .

YEAR 12—PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT

The Year 12’s are pictured on the milling machines doing their final Practical Assessment piece
machining a ‘V’ block with the addition of a pocket and a step, to within a tolerance of +/- 0.25mm.
They have had to learn how to change the end mills for the various stages of manufacture, starting with
‘squaring off’ their billet of material to 48mm x 48mm x 48mm with a 10mm end mill, cutting 2x slots,
2x ‘V’s of different dimensions and the blind pocket.
The students have had to learn how to set up by using a pair of parallels, setting the milling head to 45
degrees left and right, and use ‘V’ blocks in the machine vice to mount their billet at 45 degrees.
The various cutters that have been used are 10mm, 16mm and 3mm, all end mills.

 launched it with a virtual visit to the University of Sheffield in January and will graduate in May at
 the University of York.
 Our students worked with Dr Rav Ranaweera from the Northumbria University who led a project on
 aerospace engineering. Students produced their final project and calculations on their own flight
 design.

 MOCK INTERVIEWS

 Year 10 have engaged with Mock Interviews with five local employers with our first session of online
 mock interviews. Here at the UTC we are always keen to develop students confidence for the work
 place. Thanks to The British Army, KD Recruitment, Scarborough Borough Council, Griffiths Engineering
