I am delighted to advise that all staff and students\u00a0in Scotland can now download Office 365 using their Glow details.\u00a0 This includes all staff and pupils in Angus.\u00a0 This means users have 15 licenses to use the latest Microsoft Office products, 5 for PC or MAC, 5 for tablets (Windows, Android or iOS\/iPAD) and 5 for Phones (Android, iPhone, Windows, Blackberry, Nokia).<\/p>\n

Office 365 Education is a collection of services that allows you to collaborate and share your schoolwork. The service includes Office Online (Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote), 1TB of OneDrive storage, Yammer, and SharePoint sites. You can now install the full latest Office applications too for free.\u00a0\u00a0With the number of licenses available all devices in the home can have the full versions.<\/p>\n

All you need is your Glow username and password.\u00a0\u00a0This takes the form\u00a0in Angus of gwXXsurnamefirstname@glow.sch.uk \u00a0where XX is the year of Glow registration.\u00a0 There are different formats to the Glow username or email address in some other local authorities.\u00a0 If you don’t have these details ask for them at your school.\u00a0 In Angus at the moment your\u00a0Glow login will be different to your\u00a0school log or email which begins with three\/four school letters, i.e. car for Carnoustie, web for Websters, gra for Grange\u00a0etc.<\/p>\n
