Dear Parents/Guardians

I am pleased to let you know that I am now in a position to share with you the outcome of our Ofsted inspection.

So, I continue to feel immensely proud, that Penwortham Priory Academy has been recognised once again as Good in all areas of the Ofsted inspection framework.

This is a strong and sustained outcome, and one which reflects the commitment, professionalism, and care shown by staff, pupils, and our wider community.

The inspection confirmed that we are:

  • Good for Quality of Education
  • Good for Behaviour and Attitudes
  • Good for Personal Development
  • Good for Leadership and Management
  • And, Good Overall

The report is now available to read below and will also be available for viewing on the Ofsted website from 7 May 2025.

You will see that the report is overwhelmingly positive and provides a very strong vote of confidence for all we have done and continue to do.

I would therefore ask, that you each take the time to read the report in its entirety to be fully informed in relation to its content:

Of course, we will not be complacent following this positive inspection, and will continue to build on our achievements for the future success of Penwortham Priory Academy.

In the meantime, I hope that we can rely on your continued support to ensure we each play our part to support your child with their education, both at home and at school, so that they can achieve the success they are capable of.

Many thanks,

Mr M Eastham
Principal
