Priory Plus Awards Autumn Term 2025

Before the half term break, Mr Eastham presented badges and certificates to pupils who have achieved the next stage in the Priory+ Awards.

113 pupils achieved this recognition during the Autumn term and on Friday, 13 February, those that chose to be personally presented by the Principal got to receive their rewards (pupils who opted out of this have their certificates and badges presented to them by their Head of Year), and we were delighted to see the queue into Mr Eastham’s office went round the block! 

Priory+ aims to encourage and reward pupils for working on their own Personal Development. At Penwortham Priory Academy we believe that strong Personal Development provision contributes to making a positive difference to pupils’ lives. The opportunities provided not only allow them to engage in activities they are interested in, but enables them to explore and build a strong pathway to, and foundation for, a successful future. 

Our activities fit into five overarching strands, which supplement our Character and Culture Personal Development sessions in Learning for Life.  There are five strands: 

Culture & Heritage | Future Citizens | Health & Well-Being | Skill Builders | Bright Futures
