A £20million funding windfall will help regenerate schools across Scotland.

The pot of cash will be used for the construction and refurbishment of schools in East Renfrewshire, Dundee and Argyll and Bute as part of its £1.8 billion Scotland's Schools for the Future programme.

Crookfur Primary School in East Renfrewshire will be extensively refurbished and extended.

In Argyll and Bute, Dunoon Primary School will be fully refurbished to retain its listed building status.

St Luke's and St Matthew's Primary School and St Vincent's Primary School in Dundee will be replaced by a new joint primary school campus with Longhaugh Primary School.

Education Secretary Angela Constance said: "These latest exciting new school projects will provide fantastic, modern environments for thousands of young people to learn in and will be enjoyed by generations to come.

"Providing high-quality learning is at the heart of the Scottish Government's work and as part of this, we are committed to delivering well-designed, sustainable schools through our Scotland's Schools for the Future programme.

"On top of the educational benefits, these new modern school buildings will also provide amenities for the wider community to enjoy and will boost the local economies, creating apprenticeship opportunities for young people and construction jobs across the country.

"I look forward to visiting all of these new schools when they are completed."
