The Leigh UTC's mission is to foster a calm, safe, supportive environment that promotes professional habits to develop successful 21st-century STEM professionals. The mission is underpinned by the three core values of Respect, Relationships, and Responsibility. The college is focused on preparing students for higher education, apprenticeships, and employment through specialised programs in computer science, engineering, and business. As part of its ethos, the college creates a workplace-like environment where students are expected to take pride in their work, be well-disciplined, and exhibit a high standard of conduct both on and off campus. In partnership with families, The Leigh UTC is committed to providing a disruption-free learning space where every student can achieve their full potential.
Leigh UTC is served by route A, which stops at the Brunel Way bus stops towards Dartford and Bluewater, just two minutes' walk from the college entrance. Buses operate every 15 minutes throughout the day, and the bus stops are a minute's walk from the college entrance.
