Penryn College Celebrate Matric Results 2020

Penryn Matric Results – 19 February 2021

Penryn is thrilled to celebrate our Matrics, Class of 2020. Facing unprecedented challenges and broken dreams for their final year of school, they have turned the tables on fate and taken their
future back.

While we are especially proud of those high achievers who have once again achieved 4, 5 and 6 distinctions, all of them with less on-campus class time with their teachers than ever before, we are equally proud of each individual – One and All – every one of them has passed!

We admire their courage and determination and wish them well for all that lies ahead. Having grown mentally and emotionally to face the trying year that was 2020 we know that they are now equipped to take on their tertiary studies, the world of work, and indeed any challenges their lives ahead may bring.

We applaud our teachers who have been exemplary in their professionalism, adaptability and selflessness and who have moved heaven and earth for the young men and women that the community that is Penryn has produced.

– Mr Piers Cruickshanks, Deputy Head: Academics
