TES Global Acquires Blendspace

TES Global, a network of teachers worldwide with nearly 6 million registered teachers, has acquired Blendspace. Blendspace is a strategic acquisition for TES Global, as its web-based tools enable teachers to create self-paced digital lessons for students.

The Blendspace business and team will become part of Wikispaces, acquired by TES Global in February 2014. Previous Blendspace customers can continue to use Blendspace and premium features will now be available for free.

"We have come to know the Blendspace founding team well in recent months and have been highly impressed by their relentless dedication to building high-quality tools for teachers," said Louise Rogers, CEO of TES Global. "Blendspace is a very clever, simple and beautifully designed lesson-building tool, which enables teachers to join individual resources together into whole lessons and courses. At TES Global, enhancing the reach and functionality of our resources platform is one of our top priorities and I believe the addition of Blendspace into our portfolio is a strong complement to the tools currently being developed, and will enable us to further expand our range of classroom technologies. I'm particularly pleased that the exceptional team behind Blendspace will be staying on board and joining our colleagues at Wikispaces in San Francisco."

TES Global grows by about 22,000 new members per week, and its resources are downloaded at an average rate of seven per second.
