Previously a foundation school administered by Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council, Abraham Guest High School converted to academy status on January 2012 and was renamed Dean Trust Wigan in April 2017 as it joined a trust of good and outstanding schools across the North West. The school is now no longer sponsored by Winstanley College,[2] however it continues to coordinate with Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council for admissions.

DTW offers GCSEs, BTECs and vocational courses as programmes of study for pupils. The school also offers a number of adult education courses in the evening to the local community.[3]
