Helpline opens following Scotland's exam results
An exam results helpline has opened today with advisers on hand to discuss next steps after young people receive their results in Scotland.
The Skills Development Scotland (SDS) helpline will be available from 8am to 8pm on Tuesday 6 and Wednesday 7 August, and from 9am to 5pm weekdays from Thursday 8 until Wednesday 14 August. The number to call is 0808 100 8000.
Deputy First Minister John Swinney said: “I want to wish everyone receiving exam results the very best of luck and offer my congratulations on the culmination of all your hard work.
“This is an extremely significant time but it is important to remember that this is the start of a journey, not the end. If your results are what you hoped for that is great news but if you miss out on the grades you were looking for, or do even better than expected, there is a huge variety of options available to you that the SDS careers advisers are on hand to talk through.”
James Russell, Skills Development Scotland’s Director of Career Information, Advice & Guidance Operations, said: “If your results aren’t what you expected don’t panic, you have lots of options.
“Skills Development Scotland is Scotland’s career service and our experienced advisers are here to help you and your parents and carers with information on all the options and opportunities available to you.”
