Friday 13th October's getting closer

Three weeks to go until the October holiday and just one week later the huts will be in place and Bishopbriggs Academy will be one school. As promised, everything will be up and running and finally the teaching staff can concentrate on teaching.

No more 15 minute breaks and busing of teaching staff one school until 2009 when the new Academy opens.

Results are in...

East Dunbartonshire came top in Scotland in terms of Standard Grades benchmark, with 89% of its pupils passing five at general level or above.

33% of pupils achieved the benchmark of three or more Highers placing East Dunbartonshire, second best, in pupil achievement in Scotland.

School exams performance fell in more than half of Scotland's local authorities last year, despite recent massive increases in education spending. Nineteen of Scotland's 32 councils had worse year-on-year results in the benchmark category
