Welcometo Stamford Park Trust
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Stamford Park Trust, a Multi-Academy Trust based in and for young people in Tameside. Stamford Park Trust was established in February 2019 by Ashton Sixth Form College with the aim of improving the life chances of young people in Tameside. Ashton Sixth Form College was joined by Longdendale and Rayner Stephens High Schools in January 2021.
The vision for the Trust is simple; excellence and ambition for all.
