Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) goal difference; 3) number of goals scored.
(C) Champion.
Notes:

Rangers were deducted 10 points for entering administration.[54] As Rangers did not exit administration by 31 March, they were ineligible to compete in Europe in the 2012–13 season. Rangers were unable to agree a CVA with their creditors and the club's holding company entered proceedings to be liquidated.[55] After being reformed in a new corporate structure, Rangers were admitted into the 2012–13 Scottish Third Division in time for the start of the season.[56]
Hearts qualified for the Europa League as 2011–12 Scottish Cup winners. Since they finished fifth in the league, the sixth-placed team, St Johnstone, also qualified for the Europa League.

[table_note_res_D3D0.078197699076588-57] Rangers were deducted 10 points for entering administration.[54] As Rangers did not exit administration by 31 March, they were ineligible to compete in Europe in the 2012–13 season. Rangers were unable to agree a CVA with their creditors and the club's holding company entered proceedings to be liquidated.[55] After being reformed in a new corporate structure, Rangers were admitted into the 2012–13 Scottish Third Division in time for the start of the season.[56]

[table_note_res_ELPR0.078197699076588-58] Hearts qualified for the Europa League as 2011–12 Scottish Cup winners. Since they finished fifth in the league, the sixth-placed team, St Johnstone, also qualified for the Europa League.
