Pupils across Scotland to receive exam results

Young people across Scotland are set to receive their exam results - though mail deliveries in some parts of the country will be delayed due to Storm Floris.

Email and text results are unaffected but those waiting on certificates in the Outer Hebrides, Orkney, and Shetland have been told to expect delays.

More than 147,000 candidates will receive their marks for Nationals, Highers, Advanced Highers and Skills for Work Awards, as well as National Progression Awards and National Certificates.

Certificates will be sent by first-class post, though many students will also receive a text or email.
