Egerton Park Arts College


Egerton Park Arts College was a comprehensive school for boys and girls aged 11-16. Its address was Egerton Street, Denton, Tameside, Greater Manchester, M34 3PB.

History

It used to be called Egerton Park Community High School, and previous to that Egerton Park Secondary Modern School. It also held specialist Arts College status.

Merger

In 2010 Egerton Park merged with fellow Denton high school Two Trees Sports College, on the Egerton Park campus, creating a City Academy style high school. The name of the new school is Denton Community College. The students were on split sites but under the new Denton Community College branding until the new school building opened on 10 January 2012 to students.

Academic performance

The school had no sixth form. In the years before closure, at GCSE the school got results under the England average, although a few per cent under the Tameside average.
