Penrith High School

Possibly the best school in the area. They are selective about their admissions, and as a result attain high academic results. Their range of subjects at GCSE/A-level may be relatively small, but the teachers are genuinely enthusiastic about their respective subjects and this shows in the results they get. There's a wide range of extra-curricular activities available to all students too. The only thing that lets the school down is that some of its facilities are relatively dated, however, this does not stop it from being a fantastic institution.
