Welcome to Penwortham Priory Academy

Penwortham Priory Academy is a school where all pupils feel safe, feel happy and feel that they belong to our school community. Having pupils who feel this way about their school means we can focus on having the highest expectations of all, from all, so that all pupils ‘Learn to Succeed’ and leave Priory equipped with the right skills and attitudes to help them succeed in life, contribute positively to society, and go on to further education, employment or training.

Being the Principal of Priory reminds me of the reason I entered the teaching profession in the first place; to be a driver of change and to allow opportunities to help support all our young people realise their full potential.
