Their grades mark the culmination of years of hard work.

“These results reflect not only academic successes but also the character and perseverance of the young people that attend Pyrland School,” he said. “We wish them all every success in their chosen future pathways.”

“This is a year group who began their secondary school journey under difficult circumstances, but despite this through their hard work and the hard work of the staff that have supported them have gone on to achieve some great results.”
