I like the idea of using Moodle as the school website and theming it to the school. Can you say what base themes you used for BPS and The Royal Latin School as they look great. I am currently working on themes using Paul James Gradson's Book on Moodle Theme Design as well looking for inspiration from other designers. Thanks Mark Hi Paul,

I think it is time that my own school migrated to a single environment and I am inspired to give your approach a go. However, I would like to know how to redirect traffic from the existing web address to the moodle site. I can do a simple redirect in javascript but the result is rather clunky. Your own sites carry out this completely seamlessly. Can you explain how it is done or point me towards an article somewhere? Many thanks, Barbara. Great article.

We do similar with just the standard theme - it's not sleek or fancy but it does the job and is a great vehicle for spreading the word to our pupils/parents/primaries and the wider community.

There is no evidence to suggest that classes learn more when bombarded with the latest gadgetry or technological trick. Just because something exists doesn't mean it should be used. OFSTED will have balanced time, use and value added. Perhaps OFSTED realise that all the technology in the world cannot and does not replace sound teaching.
