All the Preston high schools ranked best to worst ahead of GCSE results day

With GCSE results day tomorrow, we thought we’d look at how high schools in Preston compare with one another.

Tomorrow, Year 11 in Preston will find out their GCSE results, the culmination of their time in school.

Whilst academic attainment is undoubtedly important, schools play a much wider role in shaping our youngsters and Ofsted considers numerous factors when inspecting a school.

Take a look below at all the schools in Preston ranked from best to worst according to Ofsted’s judgement.

You may also note that Christ The King Catholic High School does not feature in the below gallery, this is because it has not been inspected since its academisation.
