How to pivot rows into columns MySQL

Been looking to pivot rows (progress_check) into columns check 1, check 2 etc...
No sum or totals required, just to display the results hopefully...
Can anyone help, Thanks Ad

GROUP BY and using MAX or SUM is the most used standard pivot way.

SELECT 
   results.sims_id
 , results.subject 
 , MAX(CASE WHEN results.progress_check = "C1" THEN results.result END) "C1"
 , MAX(CASE WHEN results.progress_check = "C2" THEN results.result END) "C2"
 , MAX(CASE WHEN results.progress_check = "C3" THEN results.result END) "C3"
FROM 
 results
GROUP BY
   results.sims_id
 , results.subject 
ORDER BY
    results.sims_id ASC
  , results.subject ASC

Result

sims_id  subject  C1      C2      C3      
-------  -------  ------  ------  --------
   1111  Art      C       B       (NULL)  
   1111  English  6       5       (NULL)  
   1111  History  B       C       (NULL)  
   1111  maths    8       8       (NULL)  
   1111  science  A       B       (NULL)  
   2222  Art      (NULL)  A       (NULL)  
   2222  English  6               (NULL)  
   2222  ICT      A       B       (NULL)  
   2222  maths    7       6       (NULL)
