About us
We want to and will make it easy for schools to keep their staff, pupils, parents, partners, other stake-holders and wider community informed, updated and engaged.

Now, by merely typing in the text you can do it too!

It's so easy even 7 year old children can do it. If you are able to move a mouse, click a few buttons and string a few sentences together you can maintain a cutting edge site.

We'll give you all the training you'll need, support you on the phone or with email, all to make sure you get the best out of your investment.

Our killer features are:
Superb content management and blog software. Excellent Google optimisation.
An email to weblog interface, making updating your school blog a doddle. 
Top draw support and feedback.

'I don't believe it'
New York Times: Seeing No Progress, Some Schools Drop Laptops "starting this fall... joining a handful of other schools around the country that adopted one-to-one computing programs and are now abandoning them as educationally empty -- and worse."

Apparently, they 'get in the way.'

Mind, I've been in meetings where the person I've been talking to has a laptop in front of them. Most annoyingly!

For sure it's good that pupils learn to be adept at computers. But perhaps it's not right to try and use them as a replacement for pens and paper? I don't know. I am not a teacher.
