Over the Summer term, the information available on this
website will be gradually moved over to Glow. The
CPD Glow Group is already up and running, and contains
all of the links and information currently found on this
website, plus a great deal more.
Now that all Aberdeen City Schools have access to Glow,
the CPD Glow Group will become the main channel of
communication for CPD related information, and this website
will be closed down completely from August 2009.
If you have any comments or queries about the CPD Glow
Group, please contact
Andrew Jones.
