Scottish Students Face Stress as SQA Exam Results Emails Arrive Blank

Technical glitch leaves many waiting anxiously for their grades, prompting swift apologies and fixes from the exam body.

Thousands of students received blank emails instead of their expected exam results.
The Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) quickly addressed the issue, ensuring that text message results were unaffected.
Physical certificates were still delivered by post, providing an alternative for those affected.
The incident led to widespread frustration, especially among students unable to access postal results due to holidays.
Despite the glitch, the SQA reported a high number of qualifications awarded, marking a return to pre-pandemic assessment standards.
