About me: I have been teaching in special schools for some years; mainly SLD,
with a little time in MLD schools. So, initially this site will probably be
biased towards special schools, but hopefully, with support, development will be
broader. I live in Hampshire, and have a lot of ICT skills, and currently
between jobs!
- Several facts are true:
- Teachers are often too busy to search the
internet for things on their own. There are far more resources out there than
can easily be found in the time available for staff. The problem is in sorting
the good from the bad, and the time it takes. A good website will vet links in
some way; some do it by people emailing a star rating up to 5, and the average
rating being displayed as a star rating.
- Official Government websites seem to have
to be unbiased when it comes to commercial resources! There are more evaluations
of materials to be found now than there used to be though.
