Not great results, but will be interesting to see how news from one part of the UK will be spun

http://www.itv.com/news/border/2016-12-06/education-professor-calls-scotland-figures-shocking/

Lindsay Paterson, Professor of Education Policy at Edinburgh University, says Scotland has gone from being at or above England to below its southern neighbour.

In analysis provided to ITV Border Prof Paterson says:
"Describing the Scottish results of the PISA study as shocking will rightly and quickly become the standard response to their release today. "In science, reading and mathematics, Scotland has gone from being well above-average in developed countries a decade ago to being average today."

Not on script...

I hope that tertiary education sector is immune from these trends
