The SQA rushed in assistance after the inferno incinerated folio work, school records and computers, appointing a liaison officer to oversee links between departments and its Dalkeith nerve centre as principal teachers redrafted reports on each pupil. No school had ever lost so much so close to the exams.

Mr Constable said: “In five subjects results and predictions do not correlate and I am sure the anomaly relates to our special circumstances. In other subjects they have done better.”
Papers should have been brought to the attention of chief examiners in each subject before final grades were awarded.
