Eton of the North to be built on site market

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.

The elite boarding school announced plans to open a new sixth form in Oldham with the Star Academies state school trust in August 2023. But exact details about the college for 16-19 year olds were being kept under wraps.

Traders using the outdoor market will be moved to a brand new market hall attached to the Spindles centre due to be completed by Spring 2025.
