With Medway’s University Technical College (UTC) due to open next year, Rehman met with the recently appointed Principal, Dr Karen Buck, to learn more about its progress.
The UTC is designed for 14-19 year olds and will focus on providing pupils with engineering and construction skills.
Situated on the Chatham Waters site, the school has received funding for a new building and it is partnered with BAE Systems, MidKent College, University of Greenwich and Medway Council, along with other local firms.
