When we designed PrimaryPad we knew that editing content on mobile devices would be an issue for a lot of people especially Apple device owners. Today we are pleased to announce that any Apple device running iOS5 will be able to edit pad contents. Enjoy!

Sharing your school calendar
Woohoo, Since I got upgraded on PrimaryEmail I had access to this new calendar sharing thing. Currently I’m sharing my free/busy but you can share anything you want. It works really well!
To enable sharing your calendar:
Log in to your Primary Email or School Email account via the website.
Click Calendar
Click Share
Click Publish this calendar to the internet
Change your settings and then get the Link for viewing calendar in a Web browser
If you want to embed your calendar copy the Link for viewing calendar in a Web browser URL and embed it in an iframe, it will look something like this:
<iframe src="http://exchange.schoolemail.co.uk/owa/calendar/John@primaryt.co.uk/Calendar/calendar.html" width=600 height=600></iframe>
Updated School Holidays dates widget
We recently updated the school holiday widget on My School Holidays. To get yours simply visit My School Holidays, find your school and copy/paste the embed code into your blog, learning platform or website.
On top of the visual updates we have put in we are in the process of adding holiday dates for 5 more countries and we have an app in the works!

NEW FEATURE: Online Pictogram / Pictograph creator
A few days ago Matt Lovegrove mentioned he didn’t have any simple pictogram (aka pictogramme / pictograph) software for his network so we went about making him something up!
We decided to make a simple, free, online pictogram creator. This gives you the freedom to use the tool however you see fit!
Key Features:
- Images automatically load
- Up to 5000 items/rows
- We still have no ideas if this is supposed to be called a pictogramme, pictogrammen, pictogram or pictograph creator..
- No need to download/install any software
- Completely free
- Super awesome.
- Open source
