A new report has revealed which Scottish schools have the most success when it comes to exams.
The data, compiled by The Sunday Times, shows which schools and council areas have the most successful pupils academically – topped by East Renfrewshire where four out of its seven secondary schools placed in the top 12.
East Dunbartonshire was only slightly behind, with four schools also making the list, while Jordanhill School, in Glasgow, came top for the 10th year in a row.
Exam league tables are not able to rank schools from ‘best to worst’, as they do not take into account factors such as teaching quality, the number of pupils with special educational needs or whether the school serves a disadvantaged area.
Meanwhile, the Scottish Government says presenting exam performance figures in league tables is “misleading” because it overlooks such aspects but we are publishing them to provide parents with important information they can consider alongside inspection reports and other ways to assess the quality of local schools.
Here are all ten secondary schools in the Dundee City council area ranked according to exam results - along with how many pupils from each come from the 20 per cent most deprived backgrounds in the country, according to the Scottish Government.
