Case Study: Glasgow City Council improves digital learning with Showbie

Glasgow City Council - Customer Case Study

Glasgow City Council needed a better way to deliver digital learning for more than 80,000 children across a highly deprived area, especially after rolling out 50,000 Apple iPads across schools and seeking tools that would genuinely improve teaching and learning. The Council partnered with **Showbie** to support a more flexible, engaging, and classroom-ready digital learning strategy built around teaching, learning, and parent communication.

**Showbie** provided an intuitive platform that made hybrid learning simple during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond, allowing teachers to post lessons, support self-isolating pupils, and keep learning accessible from anywhere. The impact was significant: teacher usage grew from 300 in January 2020 to nearly 3,000 by June 2020, and Glasgow reported stronger attainment and positive destinations, with higher education progression doubling in one year.
