For a reminder of just how good they were, see the video of the performers from Knightswood School who took to the stage in the Clyde Auditorium last week.

Introduced as an example of what the Curriculum for Excellence can achieve in practice, they performed before the first keynote speech by Fiona Hyslop, MSP (also available on the video page of the SLF website).
