Post-results helpline set up for students in Scotland

Students across the South of Scotland learned their fate this morning as exam results were delivered either through the letter box, or by text.

Across the region, over 240,000 students from S4 to S6 got their marks this morning, however some student might not have gained the results they were expecting.

Skills Development Scotland have set up an exam results helpline for students seeking advice. The helpline can be reached on 0808 100 8000 and is open from 8am to 8pm on 9 and 10 August and 9am to 5pm on weekdays until 12 August.
