BRUCHE Primary School has been declared one of the top state primary schools in England by The Sunday Times newspaper.
The school, which is part of Warrington Primary Academy Trust (WPAT), came 51st in a table of the 250 best performing state primaries in England.
It was also the highest Warrington-based school in the table.
Bruche Primary’s impressive standing was based on the school’s 2019 SATs results for reading, grammar and maths.
Chris Jones, executive headteacher of Bruche Primary, said: "This prestigious accolade is a massive achievement for Bruche and its children, staff, parents and governors.
"We will continue to work hard for all of our children at Bruche, to give each of them high quality learning experiences, with the school motto 'success, nothing less' at the heart of everything we do."
Louise Smith, CEO of WPAT, added: "This fantastic achievement is down to the hard work and dedication of the staff at Bruche Primary.
"All of us in WPAT are very proud of Bruche’s achievement."
WPAT is a community of more than 2,100 children aged two to 11 in seven primary schools and a teaching school, employing 280 staff.
