Each series has been designed as a 3-part learning journey, ideal for building digital skills, creativity, and pupil voice. However, each lesson also works perfectly well as a stand-alone session—so you can dip in and out as suits your schedule.

🎨 Series 1: Loch Ness JIT Project (P2–P5) – May 1st, 8th and 15th
In this fun, creative series, pupils will:

  • Design and draw their own Loch Ness Monster using Just2easy tools
  • Animate Nessie moving across the loch
  • Create an e-book to tell Nessie’s story in their own words

📍 A brilliant blend of storytelling, digital art, and animation for younger learners.

🏴 Series 2: This is Scotland Project (P4–P7) May 22nd, 29th and June 5th
Perfect for upper primary learners, this series will guide students to:

  • Design their own unique tartan
  • Create a vibrant “This is Scotland” digital collage
  • Add personal and cultural content to a multimedia presentation using j2create

📍 A great way to combine national identity with creativity and tech skills.

📅 First live session: Thursday 1st May at 10:45am
🎥 Missed it live? No problem—each lesson will be recorded and made available on demand.

Glow Blogs Announcement!

Do you have a Glow Blog? Most likely the answer is yes! Glow Blogs is one of the most popular services in Glow with hundreds of new blogs being created each month.

This is fantastic news and we want to make sure Glow keeps performing well to support your blogs. To help with this, we’re carrying out a housekeeping exercise to remove older Glow Blogs that haven’t been used for a while.

On 1 May 2025 we will start to archive older Glow Blogs that haven’t been used for a number of years.  Following this, commencing 28 August 2025 we will permanently delete these from the system to free up space and help improve overall performance.

This will affect; blogs with no users and no updates in the past 3 years, private blogs with users but no updates in the last 3 years and e-portfolios with or without users that have not been updated since 2017. If you have any questions regarding this then please speak to your local Glow Key Contact.

If your Glow Blog is archived but you want to continue using it you have the opportunity to restore it back to the live environment. Simply email your Glow Key Contact before 21 August 2025 and they will raise a service call on your behalf. Otherwise, there’s nothing you need to do.

Thanks for your help and happy blogging.

The Glow Team
