Answer 1

You have to use '(single quote) sign insted of ` in like clause hope below code will help you

SELECT * 
FROM subjects 
INNER JOIN entries ON entries.subject_id= subjects.subject_id 
INNER JOIN students ON entries.student_id=students.student_id 
WHERE subjects.exam_board LIKE 'OCR';

Answer 2

SELECT * 
FROM subjects 
INNER JOIN entries ON entries.subject_id= subjects.subject_id 
INNER JOIN students ON entries.student_id=students.student_id 
WHERE subjects.exam_board LIKE 'OCR';

Your using the wrong type of quote.

You may also want to update your LIKE to be

WHERE subjects.exam_board LIKE 'OCR%';
