Page "Certificate of Sixth Year Studies" Paragraph 1

Overseen by the Scottish Examination Board ( SEB ), it was taken by students in their sixth ( and final ) year of secondary education ( ages 16-18 ) and was available for a range of different subjects.

Examinations were administered by the SEB ( and latterly by its successor, the Scottish Qualifications Authority, which replaced it in September 1997 ).

Unlike the Standard and Higher Grade examinations, it was not a part of the Scottish Certificate of Education.
