||

||
| Curriculum Online - A new site launched in January 2003 from the DfES which calls itself 'a one-stop online catalogue of digitallearning resources' Resources include lessons plans, CD-ROM's, interactive videos, simulation software, assessment materials and online services - all organised by the National Curriculum programmes of study and the QCA schemes of work. This website lists a wide range of both free and priced resources for every subject and is well worth a visit. Inlcudes ratings and reviews from teachers. | ||
BT Safe Surf Fun, colourful and animated safety advice for children when using the internet from BT. Aimed at KS2 age children, there is a quiz to take part in at the end of the presentation. |
||
My Rules for Online Safety Safety rules for the safe use of the internet by children produced by SafeKids.com, which also offers guidelines for parents |
||
Anglia Campus While apparently very good with useful ICT-based activities for most subjects, this is a subscription service costing £49.99 per year. Now, you know what I think of subscription services for underpaid teachers... |
||
Ask Jeeves Highly publicised search engine which claims to understand plain questions. Personally, I find it less helpful than other search engines. |
||
Google Arguably the best search engine on the internet. Accurate, fast, friendly and easy to use. They do not charge webmasters to put their websites on their index - Google was the first search engine to index this website - so expect fuller results. Google Safe Search is the preferred search engine of schoolsource.info. |
||
HotBot Another good search engine. Part of the Lycos family, and as such charge webmasters to submit their websites. |
||
Learning Alive RM's education portal as featured on many school computers. |
||
UK Plus UK Plus is a useful search engine which operates a no-adult content policy, meaning that all unsavoury content is filtered out before it gets to you. So you don’t need to worry about bumping into anything unpleasant while you enjoy your rummage around the web. |
||
Yahoo UK and Ireland Very popular directory - been around for ages and still don't charge webmasters to index their sites. Find schoolsource here |
||
Yell.com Online yellow pages. |
||
Becta The website of the British Educational Communications and Technology Agency. |
||
Primary Networks - Dedicated to providing primary schools with advice and resources to effectively use the Internet in the classroom. |
||
RM - The homepage of RM. Contains some useful information for teachers. |
||
| TOP LINK! ICTeachers - Aimed mainly at ICT teachers (I think), this site is also packed with resources for the three core subjects as well as links to other useful sites. | ||
Spotpages.co.uk - Although this site is squarely aimed at KS1 teachers, there are not that many pages about teaching ICT on the 'net, so I have included this one anyway (if only for the dancing man). |
||
Superhighway Safety - A DfES site containing both background and technical information on many aspects of internet safety. |
||
| Uk Schools Webring - Pretty self-explanatory, really. Works like any other webring, linking together websites by UK schools. |
