Further / Higher Education with Scottish Highers
I'm looking to take up a job offer in the newyear. My step daughter will be 18 and is keen to come with us. She currently studying highers at school in Scotland and wants to follow a course leading to a career in social work / probation. She is probably looking to take a foundation course at TAFE and then going on to University. Does anybody have any experience of this route and how highers would be viewed for entry.

Also, check with someone like Vetassess or NOOSR to see if they can do a general assessment of equivalency.
