Well times are obviously different where you are. Over in Glasgow we had no contact or mention of Scots as a language in school whatsoever.
Out of curiousity, what rough timeframe was your schooling in? I have a feeling that it's been seeing more of a resurgance in recent years, my schooling experience was in the 70's and 80's for comparison.
I find Scots words in vernacular speech all the time, but I don't think I've ever heard someone speaking it as a distinct language.
I've heard weegies speak Glaswegian, and I've heard people from the kingdom speak with their accent and dialect, but not people speaking "Scots".
