A ROW broke out after only one East Lancashire school was featured in a national league table based on A-level results.
Only Stonyhurst College made it into the Sunday Times list of 250 schools and colleges. The table claimed Stonyhurst, which charged more than £4,000 a year, had a 43 per cent rate of passes at grades A and B. But Queen Elizabeth Grammar School, Blackburn, did not appear despite a 47 per cent rate.
