Great news that Practice sets are now available for teachers to use. You will need either the Teaching and Learning Upgrade or Education Plus of Google Workspace for Education to access. If you don't have it, contact @CanopyCIC who can arrange a trial to test out the feature

A great three days at #Bett2023. I spoke to so many people on the @GoogleForEdu stand and it was amazing to see how Google was being used across education. I'm looking forward to sitting down at my desk all next week and working on some great new projects with @CanopyCIC

Looking forward to day 2 of #Bett2023. Day 1 was so good and busy. It was great to talk to so many people and have the opportunity to talk on the @GoogleForEdu Teaching Theatre about Looker Studio and how it can have an impact in education to make evidence based decisions.
