Churchtown Primary School in Southport has won the Most Inspirational Primary School accolade at the 2025 Educate Awards.
The school was also runner-up for Leadership Team of the Year.
They are part of the multi-academy Endeavour Learning Trust, with schools across Lancashire and Merseyside, which won multiple awards at this year’s Educate Awards, which took place last Friday at Liverpool Cathedral.
The trust itself won the award for the ‘Most Inspirational Multi Academy Trust’, whilst Ormskirk School was runner up for the ‘Outstanding Arts in Secondary School’ award.
A total of 21 education awards were up for grabs, shortlisted by an esteemed panel of judges.
The Educate Awards, founded by Kim O’Brien in 2012, have grown into the largest education awards in the North West.

The awards involve the best schools, colleges, teachers and support staff across Merseyside, Cheshire, Lancashire, Greater Manchester and Cumbria, as they come together to celebrate their achievements in a truly unique fashion.
David Clayton, CEO of the Endeavour Learning Trust, said:
“It was a pleasure for Endeavour as a trust, and two of our schools, to be recognised in this way.
“We’re a family of schools proudly rooted in the North West, and our values stem from our local communities.
“To be voted the most inspirational multiacademy trust is amazing, as our students and staff continue to inspire me every day”.
