  baskets, Pensby High School is one of the six and the only non-selective school to do this

Historic Results

Below are the links to results from 2021 (for 2021 the results were produced through the centre assessed grades process due to cancellation of external exams as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic)

Given the uneven impact of the pandemic on school and college performance data, the government has advised not to make direct comparisons between the performance data for one school or college and another, or to data from previous years.
