Once again we are entering the Education Awards, designed to celebrate primary and secondary education across central Lancashire
 
The awards will showcase and celebrate the very best students, teachers, schools and employees in the area, recognising the achievements that schools and pupils make within the education sector on a daily basis.
 
Penwortham Priory Academy was Highly Commended in both the ‘Secondary School of the Year’ and ‘Headteacher of the Year’ categories last year following on from previous winning successes in 2016.       
 
This year we have entered several categories including the ‘Inspirational Teacher’ award which was voted for by the pupils.  English Teacher, Mr Wall, gained overwhelming votes which was very touching given that this is his final year with the school before he begins his retirement in July.
 
Other categories entered by the school include: 
‘Secondary Pupil of the Year’ - O Tomlinson,  J Gardner
‘Young Scientist/Engineer of the Year’ - C Chan, M Robinson, V Buckley, M Atherton-Patel (submitted as a group)
Sports Achievement Award - L Taylor, H Coyne
 
All the submissions have been made and we now await the results from the shortlisting.  The awards ceremony will take place at the Charter Theatre, Preston Guild Hall on Weds, 20 June.  As usual, we will be taking a small group of pupils to cheer us on and all the school’s nominees will be invited.
