Highland teachers are invited to attend the session arranged for Wednesday 8th October, at the Dingwall Education Centre. Anyone interested in coming along to the training can book via Highland CPD. This is an excellent opportunity to support the GTCS Professional Review process and expand professional learning plans.

Scran sessions aim to show teachers how to tap into a vast visual resource, become familiar with the functions of the website, www.scran.ac.uk for research & investigation – as well as considering new applications for classroom activity.

Staff can find out how to acquire imagery & information to illuminate teaching & learning practice.  All 390,000 records on Scran are rights cleared for educational use and the content can be used across the curriculum. The session consists of a presentation followed by an enjoyable series of online tasks exploring the potential of Scran.

Scran is listed on the GTCS register of approved CPD providers and on Education Scotland’s PLFind.
