Ellesmere Park High School is a coeducational secondary school located in the Ellesmere Park area of Eccles, Greater Manchester, England.[1] The school has gone through several renovations throughout the years.
The school on Wentworth Road was originally built as a county secondary school and was officially opened in 1957 as Ellesmere County Secondary School. Later, its name was changed to Ellesmere Park Secondary Modern School as the school leaving age was extended.
The Monton Building, formerly known as Eccles Grammar School was the first secondary school built by Lancashire County Council after the 1902 Education Act. The original building was on Park Road in Monton, at the top of Hawthorn Avenue.[2]
The grammar school's magazine was called the Essayan.[3]
The school was renamed Ellesmere Park High School in September 2014 and moved.[4]
