The mother of a student who took his own life after wrongly being told he could not graduate says he was "failed" by Glasgow University after a report highlighted serious concerns.
An investigation by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education found that the university’s processes posed a "systemic risk to academic standards".
Its review was carried out after the death of Ethan Brown, who should have been awarded a 2:1 degree but was incorrectly told he had not passed his course.
His mother, Tracy Scott, said her son was "robbed" of his degree, and changes must be made to "safeguard" current and future students.
Glasgow University apologised and said it fully accepted the report’s recommendations.
