According to the BBC, school pupils in Scotland will sit exams online for the first time. Using systems provided by the Bradford company BTL, 120 pupils and students in schools and colleges across Scotland will sit a public multiple choice exam in biotechnology, described by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) as a "significant milestone" in modernising exams. (Thanks to reader Che Osborne, for this, who works for BTL.)
