Penwortham Priory Academy received glowing accolades at the Lancashire Evening Post Education Awards last week.

The event was held at Preston North End and a selection of teachers and students supported Priory at the popular event designed to celebrate primary and secondary education across central Lancashire.

The awards showcase 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.   

Technology teacher Mr Graham was nominated by the pupils as their most inspirational teacher and he was highly commended in that category on the night.
Star footballer Jazmin was also highly commended in the Sports Achievement category.

Colin, who took his Astronomy GCSE in Year 9 and has had a piece published in the Young Scientist, was also highly commended in the Young Scientist/Engineer Award section.

Finally the school as a whole won praise in the Secondary School of the Year category where students picked up a highly commended certificate.
