Hi, If a class blog is not viewable without a login what would be the easiest method for Quad Blogging 'partnership' schools? We could make each class a member of their blog - so that they have to sign in to comment? Any other ideas from...

Four classes and four teachers thoroughly enjoyed our quad in 2014!  We all agreed that we've made some great connections with each other and our classes.  As such, we've decided that we would like to keep in touch with each other...

Hi, just a quick query.  If you have registered for Quadblogging in Term 1, do you need to re-register for Term 2 or will you automatically be put in another quadblogging group?  Just keen to carry on that's all. Cheers
