Pupils issue a wee special

A SPECIAL edition of the Big Issue created by Scottish teenagers – including two 15-year-olds from the Capital – is being launched this week.

The Wee Issue will be distributed free to every secondary school pupil in Scotland from today – totalling some 305,000 copies.

The magazine, featuring interviews with Paolo Nutini and Paramore, was put together by a team of pupils including Ismay Hutton from James Gillespie's High School and Ashwini Arvind from George Watson's College.
