Angus pupils welcomed back

Pupils returning to school in Angus today have been welcomed back by Angus Council’s children and learning convener Sheena Welsh.

She said: “It’s an exciting time for all pupils, parents, carers and teachers and I’d like to welcome everyone at the start of the new school year.

“In particular I’d like to welcome new pupils into primary one and wish them well with their school careers.

“This year Angus pupils recorded the best SQA exam results in the past five years.

“While SQA exams are a long way off, these recent results show the quality of education they can look forward to receiving.”
