webman Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Their remuneration compard to most tech support staff makes up for the "inconvenience" in my opinion.
Ravening_Wolf Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Linked blog from the above TES forum thread. LOL
petectid Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Not really on subject but it is interesting that RM gets a hell of a slamming on this thread, yet they seem to be ahead when it comes to winning contracts under BSF. I suppose allot of the LEAs who are partly responsible for awarding contracts are going to have egg on their faces when the sh*t hits the fan. I do not think we will have to wait long for this to happen?

bossman Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 When the Educational commitees involve all areas of expertise instead of just ex Headteachers and ministers who turn themselves into these political teams of quangoes (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/1058349.stm) who quite frankly do not live in the real world enviroment then maybe just maybe a balanced enviroment within education would prevail.
Ravening_Wolf Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 If I knew who m0nkeyb0y was I'd shake his hand There's a surprising lack of flame in response to that comment
webman Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I know I had to stop myself posting on TES a while ago because the teachers didn't like what I had to say. All they have to do is stamp their feet, run to their union and they get what they want (usually). What annoyed me about TES was that they didn't think a Technical Support Staff section was necessary.
spc-rocket Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Come on Russ, Hmmm don't see any comments by Russ, where is he? Ash.
Ravening_Wolf Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 they didn't think a Technical Support Staff section was necessary. Shut it underling! ROFL
SteveT Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Spent ages last year setting this up and testing. (Have to say RM support were good with any problems, and there were a few!!! ) Teaching staff then decided not to use it as they were too busy to fit it in. Will take my time this year!!!!
webman Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Shut it underling! ROFL Exactly.. we're just a necessary evil
Geoff Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Teaching staff then decided not to use it as they were too busy to fit it in. Huh? I thought the testing was required and enforced from 'on high'?

What annoyed me about TES was that they didn't think a Technical Support Staff section was necessary. It isn't ... the area is not just for ICT teachers ... but any member of staff that deals with, or uses, ICT in a school ... or at least that is how it used to be, but now it is ICT as a subject!!! Anyway ... there are better places to go than there ...
webman Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 I see technical support more of a whole-school thing, not directly linked to ICT as a subject.
Dos_Box Posted December 14, 2006 Author Posted December 14, 2006 Anyway ... there are better places to go than there ... Really? Where?
Irazmus Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Anyway ... there are better places to go than there ... Really? Where? Here

Ravening_Wolf Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 MMMM....yellow.... Is the re-transmission of BBC copyrighted TV shows even legal?
GrumbleDook Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 He also posts on uk.education.schools-it ... I have resisted so far as his heart is in the right place ... even if his brain isn't.
beeswax Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 MMMM....yellow.... Is the re-transmission of BBC copyrighted TV shows even legal? that reminds me, must disable all the IWB's and projectors before the last day of term.
CHR1S Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Anyway, back to TES. Whos this numpty? http://www.tes.co.uk/section/staffroom/thread.aspx?story_id=2318775&path=/ict/&threadPage=1 Something tells me hes just a smart spammer.. look at his shopping section! Womens Interest - A range of shops selling femenine interest goods. Betting and Gaming - Just a few sites for you gamblers LOL! Aimed at kids eh?
alan-d Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 He forgot to mention that his shop consists of affiliated sites, some of which have suspended his account . Not that I'm suggesting that he is doing it for the money btw - we'll be blocking it
