Strong performance expected as exam results delivered
Published: Tuesday 5 August 2025
Young people from across South Lanarkshire have received their exam results today.
Grades have been revealed for Nationals, Highers and Advanced Highers as well as National Progression Awards, Skills for Work Awards and National Certificates and Awards.
Councillor Gavin Keatt, Acting Chair of South Lanarkshire Council’s Education Resources Committee, said: “I am delighted to extend my congratulations to all our young learners on their results. These achievements reflect months of hard work and will now help many of them take confident steps towards further study, apprenticeships, training or employment.
“I would also like to thank our teachers and support staff whose dedication, care and professionalism continue to make a lasting difference in the lives of our young people.
“We know that not every learner will have received the results they were hoping for. Please remember that there are always alternative routes forward and help is available to guide next steps. Support is offered through our schools and from Skills Development Scotland, where expert advice can help young people navigate options and make informed decisions.”
Lyndsay McRoberts, Executive Director of Education Resources, added: “None of these successes would have been possible without the efforts of our young people and the support they’ve received from their families, teachers and each other.
“We are proud of the strong foundations they have built and confident that these achievements will help guide them towards a positive and fulfilling future. We wish all our learners continued success as they move forward.”
Pupils seeking help or advice should contact their school in the first instance.
Additional support is available from the SQA Candidate Advice Line on 0345 279 1000 and the Skills Development Scotland Results Helpline on 0808 100 8000.
