100 school pupils penalised for taking mobile phones into exams

According to Scotland Today, more than 100 school pupils have failed exams this year - not because they cheated - but because they broke the rules by taking mobile phones into examination halls.

"The pupils involved will learn they have been penalised when exam results are delivered on 9th August. The Scottish Qualifications Authority say a further 41 pupils have failed for copying the work of other students or authors."
