Google Additional Services #GoogleEDU
As an LA who can access Google through Glow, are you aware of all the Google Additional Services that we have access to?
This Glow Connect post outlines what we can access. Remember for staff to be given permission for these tools within Glow, they need to give their consent as per Google’s terms and this is done via an opt-in form that is shared with the National Glow Team. Details of this form have been shared with your SLT member with responsibility for Digital Learning.
