This feasible for a primary but not a Secondary (see http://savingict.posterous.com/google-mlemaybe-next-year-perhaps) so we went with RealSmart who have proved to small enough to care and with the expertise to deliver. Initial feedback on the recent launch is very positive with staff throughout the School wanting to use it. Repeat wanting to use it.

We now have the beginnings of a real Personal Learning Environment. With Fronter we had a jail.

All homeowrk is set, and submitted via Moodle. All sow are accessed by staff through Moodle, and all resources for every sow are accessible on Moodle by all students and staff. Moodle is used by ataff in every lesson, in conjunction with IWB. Moodle usage by students is extremely high – especially on a specially created revision sites leading up the exams. Our English Moodle was even accessed on Christmas Day! The Moodle is very much alive in the English Dept at The Hayling College!
