All schools hold a Copyright Licencing Agency Education Licence. The licence saves teachers the time and expense that can be involved in using copyrighted works by giving them permission to copy up to 5% from books and magazines.

The Licence now comes with the Education Digital Platform as standard, at no extra cost, which makes copying quicker, readable, and more environmentally friendly.

The Education Platform allows teachers to:

• unlock digital versions of books their school owns, and to access the books remotely;

• make copies for lessons in just a couple of clicks;

• generate links to copies, that can be saved on the intranet, emailed or shared via Google Classroom and Microsoft Teams;

• store copies digitally, ready for re-activation next year.

All teachers are eligible to register for the Platform for free and can start benefiting from time and cost savings.

Please note – if you cannot attend you can still register and receive a copy of the webinar.
