More must be done to ensure all pupils benefit from improvements in Scotland's schools, the Inspectorate of Education warns in its report on inclusion in education.

The report says achievement goes beyond success in examinations and tests, and it emphasises personal and social skills.

Senior chief inspector Graham Donaldson said: "Despite clear evidence of improving educational standards, significant numbers of young people leave school without key intellectual and social skills. The challenge for all of those involved in supporting children and families is to work together creatively and with determination to ensure all young people enjoy success at school."
