History
South Bank Engineering was established as a University Technical College in September 2016,[3] with a capacity for 600 pupils.[4] The UTC was sponsored by London South Bank University, Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and Skanska.[5]
In September 2023 South Bank UTC was re-registered as an academy sixth form, changing its lower age intake to 16.[6] The institution was renamed South Bank University Sixth Form, and continues to be sponsored by London South Bank University, as part of South Bank Academies.[7] The new sixth form concept was part of the LSBU Group and created educational pathways into employment, apprenticeships, college or university.
