Today when I was at Wilsden Primary school I witnessed a child opening safe search on a toshiba netbook and I was ashamed how bad it looked. This was because the netbook was at 800×600 resolution.

Internet Safety @ Next Generation Learning – http://www.nextgenerationlearning.org.uk/At-Home/Internet-safety/ – Here you will find links to lots of resources on internet safety. The content is aimed at both home and school and has resources for parents and children.
E-safety week – http://www.esafetyweek.info/ – I love this idea. E-Safety can affect every aspect of our lives so to introduce it across an entire week seems fantastic. This site is made by Oldham and provides a framework for other LA’s to do similar exercises.
Primary School Safe Search – http://primaryschoolict.com/ – A google powered safe search engine that gets educational results more accurately. Great for setting as pupils and teachers home page. I like this site because it’s not so much a teaching resource as a learning aid.
Over the summer holidays your kids may want to use the internet and they may ask you about some good sites to visit or you may want to give them a few.
Google recently announced that 1000 man/woman years have gone into developing “Google Search’s algorithms”.
That’s a lot of cookies.
Proof that cloud computing is gonna consume all the cookies 🙂
P.S Sorry to Lydia, I ate your cookies!
Woohoo, after several months of development work the new Primary School Safe Search site is live at http://primaryschoolict.com/
If you have your browsers home page set to http://primaryt.co.uk/google then it will automatically redirect you to the new site. You might want to change your browsers home page, this is available on the bottom right hand side of the page 🙂
Glad it’s finished, next project is PGA 🙂
