A huge new secondary school will be built in the heart of Oldham town centre after councillors gave the proposals the green light.

The Brian Clarke Church of England Academy is to be constructed on the site of a former Sainsbury’s supermarket off Booth Street, which has now been demolished.

The proposed 1,200-pupil academy is named after the Oldham-born artist and architect Brian Clarke, who works predominantly in stained glass.
