Qualifications Scotland (previously SQA)
Qualifications Scotland is the organisation responsible for external qualifications in Scotland.
In Lossiemouth High School we use a variety of Qualifications Scotland qualifications but the main ones used are their courses at National 3, National 4, National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher. We also enter candidates for Skills for Work courses, National Progression Awards and stand-alone units. Information about all of these courses can be found on the Qualifications Scotland website.

Your National Qualifications booklet
SQA has published ‘Your National Qualifications’ – a booklet for learners that tells them what they need to do when completing coursework. It also contains some useful information about preparing for exams.
Printed copies have been sent to every school and college to be distributed to learners.
A second publication, ‘Your Exams’, will be available at the end of March and will provide learners with what they need to know about preparing for and sitting exams. This will also include exam and study tips within the booklet instead of publishing subject specific study resources.
e-Sgoil study support
e-Sgoil is continuing to develop its offering of online study support resources for learners working towards National Qualifications. These include subject-specific webinars.
