Video shown as QR Codes in Blippit Subject Reports (2026 app ver. 3+)
January 1, 2026
Blippit Boards allows you to capture short videos alongside photos when recording curriculum evidence. These videos are included in Subject Reports using QR codes so they can be accessed quickly and securely.
How video works in Blippit Boards
each board can include up to three videos
each video can be up to one minute long
videos sit alongside your photos, tags and written context in the board
When you generate a Subject Report:
the video itself is not embedded in the document
instead, Blippit automatically inserts a QR code
scanning the QR code opens and plays the video on a mobile device
This keeps reports compact while still allowing rich evidence to be viewed.
Why QR codes are used in reports
QR codes make it easy for Subject Leaders and teachers to:
view video evidence quickly
share examples of good practice
support monitoring and professional dialogue
reduce file size and printing demands
They are designed to support professional use in school improvement, not public display or social media sharing.
Safeguarding and responsible sharing
QR codes will work if scanned from:
printed reports
shared PDF or Word files
screens or displays
Because of this, we strongly recommend:
controlling where reports are shared and stored
limiting circulation beyond those who need access
thinking carefully before displaying QR codes publicly
following your school’s safeguarding and data protection policies
Always ensure that pupils and staff in videos are suitably safeguarded and that videos are used in an appropriate professional context.
