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[clarification needed] was extended.
