Our journey rolling out Adobe Express across the whole local authority has been exciting. Teachers and students have had fun learning together through the live lessons and we have been well supported by Adobe with bespoke training sessions. As confidence has grown, it has been a great pleasure to be able to go into our schools in Aberdeenshire and see first hand the different ways in which Adobe Express is being used by learners and their teachers to inject creativity across the curriculum, enriching the Experiences and Outcomes within the Curriculum for Excellence.
