Here I think it's necessary for our daily
I've had to revisit a number of my widgets so that they can also run at cluster level for individual schools within the cluster. A few hours work but it was worth the effort.
Below is a Progresso Cluster User Dashboard which uses 2 widgets (previously posted on this blog) but the establishment parameter in each widget points at a different school within the cluster. Hey presto! I can see a summary of a number of schools on a single page.

We will be there next week with our new tablet bag that can be used as a lapdesk. It is protective and supportive for using tablets on the go and has a range of carry options.
There is a blog post about the conference here: http://tabletbag.net/trabasack-tablets-schools-conference-2013
We are giving away 100 bags at the event so I hope some of you get to try one.

We already covered tip #57 back in the summer and #58 was only interanlly relevant, so on to #59 we go - ICT Tip 059 - Searching Emails.doc. Based on Outlook 2010, but should be good for 2007 and 2013 as well.
So this is a pretty dull tip, but you'd be amazed how few people know this stuff.

This blog is to help people with problems with small basic
when installing small basic as admin and all is fine you run the program test it out and it works brilliant I thought...NO! I'm wrong, as when you are logged in as a pupil and start to code it runs fine until you save the project and then you get a nice error about access denied.
I thought that it could be an issue with group policy, so I move the user up and up the directory structure and tested and every time with a reboot. At
How to make windows update talk to a remote wsus server, through a proxy.
1 . deploy wsus server address in group policy
2. create isa rule to allow thru http, https and kerberos-sec (udp) to wsus server, all users
3. change winhttp on workstations to use a non-authenticating proxy. e.g. squid.
c:\>netsh winhttp set proxy x.x.x.x:xx
So in order for it to work you have to have to hand a non-authenticating proxy that you can route the winhttp downloads of BITS (background in
As an ex-teacher I remember having access to key information at the right time was always challenging. If I've entered the current assessment levels why can't I easily see it without having to navigate through the system?
Well here's a widget that just might help with that.
The Attainment vs National Average widget allows a user to select an assessment point (e.g. Year 4 / Autumn 1 / NC Level) and compares it to a specified level (e.g. National Average). The widget will produce a summary
Hi, I have designed a new website for school using an American company called WIX, the software is so easy to use, I love it. I am now ready to go live with the new site, however I want to use the old domain name ending with - .sch.uk -, but the I can only buy a domain ending with - .net. Can I redirect the .net name to the .sch.uk?

Path of shadows is a game made by 5 students at IDEC - Universitat Pompeu Fabra.
It is a short stealth based demo released for free on PC [download link on their site.]

The game is set in a nondescript, unnamed, seemingly ancient Japanese town, which has been presented in cell shaded visuals. It looks beautiful and goes to show that hyper realism isn't the only option. The game is split into 3 sections; the graveyard, the tu

If you run Securus on your network, you'll occasionally need to update your client to resolve some daft issue. Whilst the client comes as an MSI - very helpful - it's a pain to do anything with because of the way Securus runs.
The MSI's have different product codes, so running the new MSI doesn't upgrade or overwrite the old install, it just installs alongside, and the old version seems to take precedence. Depending on how your original install was pushed out, you may not be able to send out
This post is intended purely for future Google warriors, as it took me a while to track down and I know, from my struggles, that there isn't much discussion of the issue.
Whilst building a home theater PC for a friend earlier in the year, I hit a roadblock with the PC TV Tuner - everytime the card was installed in the system, the computer completely refused to boot.
With the PCI card removed, the machine worked as intended, no problems at all.
With the PCI card installed, the fans would s
Continued from last time, some more on Out of Office, but as done through Exchange 2007's webmail service: ICT Tip 054 - Using Webmail to set up Out of Office.doc
It's probably accurate for Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2010 as well, bar a few screenshot changes.
Many of us find it a little annoying that SIMS doesn't come with an .msi installer. But not to worry I have put together a script to do the job. To get yourself setup follow the following setps.
Download the attached .zip file
Inside the root of the source folder populate it with the following installer files SIMSAMPARKSetup.exe, SIMSApplicationSetup.exe, SIMSInfrastructureSetup.exe & SIMSManualSetup.exe
Also inside the same folder put your connect.ini file. If you do have one it can
Long story short, Java started including an expiration timer on JRE releases. So many days after a release, regardless of update settings, a dialog will start popping up asking the user to update. This really isn't an issue, but with it JRE will stop running unsigned code. Many sites that my teaching staff have come to rely on have unsigned Java apps, and keeping over 500 frozen wireless laptops up to date every time a new version of JRE is released isn't really feasible. So enters VB script
