The exact location of a ‘transformative’ new college linked to Eton has been revealed for the first time. Eton Star Oldham, a state sixth form aiming to support disadvantaged young people into top universities, will be built on the site of the current Tommyfield outdoor market.
Oldham council boss Arooj Shah commended the project as an ‘exciting and significant’ moment for the borough. The council leader added that she expected the new college would also ‘increase footfall’ in the town centre and help local businesses.
