SCOTLAND'S only adult education residential college has been praised by inspectors.
Newbattle Abbey College, in Midlothian, received two "very goods" and seven "goods" following a recent inspection by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education (HMIe).
The report particularly praised the college's learning and teaching, and guidance and support.
It also highlighted educational leadership, direction and management, access and inclusion, resources and services to support students.

"These excellent results are testament to the hard work and dedication of the fantastic team of staff at the college.
