Eton Star Oldham to Proceed After Government Review
Oldham Council has welcomed confirmation that the Eton Star Oldham will proceed following a government review of the proposals. The new college, a partnership between Eton College and Star Academies, will be built on the Tommyfield Market car park site in Oldham town centre. It will offer a new education model combining high standards with expanded opportunities for local young people. Council Leader Cllr Arooj Shah said the college will give Oldham's young people access to life-changing opportunities regardless of background. Work will now begin on detailed design, delivery and community engagement. The college aims to remove barriers, raise aspirations and give pupils from every background access to the best opportunities.
