More than 8000 pupils are to have their fingerprints taken so they can be tracked by teachers.
The scheme is to be introduced in all eight secondary schools across East Dunbartonshire, including Bishopbriggs Academy.
Similar systems already installed in schools in England cost up to £20,000 per school.
From the register
As many as 200,000 primary and high school children from the age of seven have already been finger printed. Supplier Micro Librarian Systems estimates that its technology, which is similar to identification systems used in US prisons and by the German military, is in use by 350 schools throughout the country.
