The Scottish Government announces that pupils in East Dunbartonshire are set to learn about China following the opening of a new Confucius Classroom Hub. The Hub is based at St Ninian’s High School, Bishopbriggs, recognised for its outward-looking approach as winner of the International School’s Award at the 2008 Scottish Education Awards. As Scotland steps up its engagement with China, this is the fifth of eight Confucius Classroom Hubs being opened across the country. The East Dunbartonshire Confucius Classroom Hub will provide the area with a central learning point for Chinese culture, language, heritage, history, art, food, music and sport. The Hub will offer young people a stimulating and engaging way to gain the skills needed to succeed in a global society.
