John Swinney MSP, Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Education and Skills, talked with students and staff at the Royal Blind School during a tour of their campus in Morningside this morning.

Mr Swinney visited the school to find out how it delivers education and care to young people with visual impairment, including some with complex needs.
