    Why Move to Oldham?

    Situated in a fantastic location; Oldham lies just from the motorway network between Manchester and the beautiful Yorkshire countryside.

    It also lies amid the Pennines on elevated ground between the Irk and Medlock rivers.

    Oldham is a borough of contrasts. From the vibrant urban towns in the west of the borough that sit adjacent to Manchester city centre, to the picturesque villages of Saddleworth that provide a gateway to the Peak District National Park.

    Compared to other cities, Oldham does have a rather understated look and its once dubious reputation of low wages and high unemployment have held it back, but nowadays, there is lots more to this town than meets the eye.

    Property values have been historically low; however, people are waking up to this and savvy landlords and buyers are now snapping up homes that would, in other areas, be well beyond normal means.

    Its proximity to urban hubs like Manchester provides residents with a choice of commuting or gaining employment locally.

    At the last count, there were over 6,000 businesses spanning a range of sectors including professional services, manufacturing, and construction.

    Local authority initiatives like “Get Oldham Working” have helped to create thousands of new jobs for the town and continue to do so.

    Living in the town means you have access to more than 30 local parks and greenspaces with several Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty within a short distance.

    Oldham ticks many of the boxes most consider vital to a good standard of living.

    Oldham Schools & Education

    When you are relocating with children, where you live in relation to good schools will be an important factor to consider.

    The quality of education in Oldham varies, so it pays to do a little investigating before you actually move.

    Oldham’s educational facilities from nursery level up have undergone massive improvements in recent years, particularly regarding its further and higher education provision.

    Currently, over 90 state primaries (with a couple of new ones under construction) feed into 12 state secondaries. Private schooling is available and provided by 6 institutions.

    Noteworthy primaries include Bare Trees, Buckstones and St Thomas Moorside CofE (VA) Primary School, all “outstanding” says Ofsted.

    Among the top-performing secondaries are Oldham Academy North, Saddleworth School, and the Crompton House C of E Academy

    Farrowdale House Preparatory School and Firwood Manor Preparatory School offer residents first-rate independent education.

    University Campus Oldham is a centre for higher education and a sister campus of the University of Huddersfield. Students can study a wide range of courses from foundation level right up to Honour Degrees.
