City Technology College

In England, City Technology Colleges (CTCs) are independent schools which charge no fees as their recurrent costs are paid by the DfES and businesses within the private sector. City Technology Colleges specialise in teaching mainly technology based subjects such technology, science and maths.
CTCs also forge close links with businesses and industry, and often governors are directors of local or national businesses that are supporting or have supported the colleges.
The government and DfES are currently trying to persuade CTCs to become City Academies. So far it is believed that at least ADT and John Cabot CTCs have volunteered to do this.
