More than 50 youngsters from across Scotland will take an intensive tuition course in the language, experience a range of cultural activities and travel across China before receiving an SQA-accredited qualification once they complete the course.
Minister for Learning, Languages and Science, Dr Alasdair Allan, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity that I am delighted to support. The Scottish Government is continuing to advance our relationship with China.”
