A school has scored top marks across the board in its latest Ofsted inspection — the only county primary to do so last year.
Appleton Primary School was given 'outstanding' grades for every area inspected.
Headteacher Mary Watts, who has been at the school for almost eight years, said: "We have fantastic staff here and they all work incredibly hard so we were thrilled that Ofsted recognised that. Every category was really important to us. It wasn't just the teaching and learning but the pupils' attitudes and behaviour and their education — everything was important."
The last time the school was inspected was in 2004, when it again scored top marks in each category.
Nationally, 15 per cent of schools achieve 'outstanding' in one category or more of Ofsted inspections, and just two per cent get top marks in every category.
