This sounds like what I am looking for. Was it easy to setup?

Thank you, Will look at these options. Currently the staff and students logins are similar so may need to alter policy to follow AlanD’s example. Thank you Witch, will investigate this further.

Good morning, We are a small independent school who has recently invested in Office 365. I would like my students to have access to Office 365 but the powers that be do not want the students to have the same email address as the staff. They would like them to be easily identified as a student of the school, rather than sharing the same email address standard. Is this easy to do? In my head we should be able to create a sub domain within office 365 so instead of the [email protected] we could create [email protected]. Is this possible??? Thank you in advance.

I am in. PM should be on it's way!

Mixed feelings about this as a Liverpool fan. On the one hand he is a fantastic footballer who strikes fear into any team we played against, this alone shall be sorely missed. On the other hand he comes with too much baggage and it seems like he is one incident away from a very large ban, particularly in this country. I don't think Liverpool could keep backing him regardless of how good a player he is.

Did Mcmanaman or Owen not get selected when playing for Real Madrid? Interesting!!

Thanks to all of the posts on here, I too have found the couch to 5k programme and downloaded all of the podcasts. up until 4 years a go I was relatively fit, playing football regularly etc... 2 kids later and any attempts at running have found me struggling. I think I still have the mindset of 4 years ago and the body is just not in that same place! I really need to start again and this looks like just the thing. Has anyone been doing the strength and flex programme along side the couch to 5k? Have they found it helps?

I taught this this year to my year 7's and 8's and they thoroughly enjoyed it. The Makewaves social networking accounts meant that they had a chance to practice how to stay safe online without having to give them access to Facebook etc.... You also have a good level of control over it so are able to monitor things and can set it up so that content has to be accepted before going live. Plus, you can hand out a certificate at the end of it or a digital badge!

I got an email and replied but have so far not received anything back.... and I was so looking forward to my goodie bag!

Is anyone else within the CLEO region, who has a Moodle resource hosted by CLEO experiencing difficulties this morning? Our users are experiencing slowness and not being able to log in to the schools moodle. The Internet connection is up and running fine, so not an Internet issue. Thanks

I have configured the two files and still no joy. I found another thread that told me to put this command into the terminal prompt and this works sudo apt-get -o Acquire::http::proxy="http://[i]proxyurl:port[/i]" update I guess I just need to find the right file to input the Acquire command

I created a file in the following location /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/10proxy which contains the above piece of code. Should this be in another file?

Hello all, Has anyone been able to connect to their Raspberry Pi's to the Network so that the 'sudo apt-get update' command works? I have followed some advice found online which enables me to point the Raspberry Pi to the Cache box and it appears to work, however when I run the update I get about 6% through before it fails citing that it cannot connect to the mirror sites. Is it a case that the address is being blocked by CLEO or have I missed something? Has anyone managed to connect the Raspberry Pi, who is still receiving their Internet connection through CLEO? Thanks Nick

Done

We discovered... well actually my colleague (who is off for two weeks!!) discovered that it ran some scripts when the program started, which meant that staff could use it but students got nothing when the icon was clicked. I am not sure what he did to correct this but he seemed to think it was relatively simple (ie adjusting settings for student user type). If I see him I will point him to this thread and see if he can be more use than I am. Apologies

Is this the same thing that has the name wildfire 5.0? I found this information useful and it ended up being quite easy to install (although this is on a CC3 network!) Good luck Nick

The job is a full time position. All the Information and forms can be found here. Cheers Nick

I am in!

Done and Done

I think finding out more information from the deputy head is your first port of call. You need to understand exactly what they are expecting as the last thing you want in that situation is to be put on the spot. Perhaps something similar to what I had to do, create a guide/manual prior to the talk then standing up and introducing the document and how it could benefit them may be the way to go.

how long do you have to talk for? The first time I had to do something similar I had produced a 'technical manual' which instructed staff how to solve the most common problems that affected the start of a lesson (SIMS errors, Connecting a laptop to a projector) as well as some basic housekeeping instructions for things like Outlook. My talk lasted less than five minutes but it was pretty daunting! I remember thinking that keeping it light and brief was the way to go... however I was only talking for 5 mins!!

I am in your position. My girlfriend is a teacher and I have seen the other side as well so I am going into this with my eyes completely open.

Before I started my current job I had a HND in computing. For the past 18 months I have been completing a 'top up' course part time to turn that into a degree in Applied Computing. A lot of work and effort, particularly when we had a new born baby in January... but it will be totally worth it when I get to spend my summers with my family.

If you wanted to teach in ICT when you did your PGCE you should have been able to do a SKE (Subject Knowledge Enhancement) course which would give you the basic knowledge to teach ICT. I am having to do a 2 week SKE before September to check that I have the relevant background knowledge before I start. I think teaching is a good career depending on the type of person you are, if your an easy going person who is confident then you should be fine.
