Published annually, the Sunday Times schools league table for Scotland ranks the country’s 347 state secondary based on exam results.
The schools league table is based on the percentage of pupils achieving the Scottish Government’s “gold standard” of five highers in the last two years. Parents can see the full performance table for all Scottish state secondary schools by visiting The Times website.
