Fronter and Pearson

Tonyoung · 11-12-2008, 09:41 AM

Somebody at school thinks that our VLE supplier, Fronter, has sold out to Pearson. Can anyone confirm this as I can't access the relevant sites while at school.

If it is true what is the likely outcome for Fronter customers - will we see changes for the better or the worst ? I can't decide whether this is good for the school or not

it appears to be true - there's a news item on the Fronter site.

Don't know if it'll be good or bad yet - hopefully it'll improve Fronters support mechanisms.

Well that sounds like good news for Norfolk schools using E1 and having fronter foisted on them then I hope.
