How about using explode to split the string Into an array at | and then use index 1.
$arr = explode("|", $string); echo $arr(1);

I have a string like this...
"Export Result for DMGS | JSS 1A | English Studies | 2017/2018"
JSS 1A is dynamic, i.e, it changes depending on the data exported. I only want to remove other parts of the string leaving just JSS 1A or whatever it is that will be placed there...
Thanks alot!

Vice versa merge your array back to a string using implode.

If your others string values are static then you can also use string sunstr function like-
string substr ( string $string , int $start [, int $length ] )

Some corrections, an array index is selected by [ ], not () and the values should be trimmed, to remove the spaces around the |.
$arr = explode("|", $string); echo trim($arr[1]);
