Here's a thought .....

Some of the sites below have been created by fellow teachers who graft all day at the chalkface then come home and spend "spare" time saving everyone else time by running resource websites.
Wouldn't it be nice if just 1% of users took the trouble to send these folks the occasional "Thanks mate!" email?
Are you that one in a hundred who uses the T word? ....... We all need ego strokes.

Educationalists.co.uk

This is an online resource for education specialists, resources and support - including consultants, organisations, charities, companies, universities, colleges and schools, researchers, analysts and experts! In addition, articles, case studies, reports, features, conferences, seminars....... to support school based, further, higher and lifelong learning across the United Kingdom.
This is an entirely different site to the one listed below.

Educationalist.org

An Educational Web Directory and Search Engine with links to LEAs, Jobs, resources, curriculum support,and loads more. A well-constructed site with built-in potential for expansion.
This is an entirely different site to the one listed above.

Mathsroom.co.uk

A superbly imaginative collection of maths resources & games using Excel, PowerPoint, Flash, and Shockwave.
Mainly aimed at the SATs-free Scottish system - lucky bu**ers!
The home pagelinks to an explantion & comparison of English & Scottish systems. Many ideal for use with an interactive whiteboard. Some files are pretty big if you're not on broadband.

School History

This extensive site has downloadable resources for guess what? - HISTORY!
There are lots of worksheets (PDF files) and also ready-made Powerpoint presentations to use with your data projector.
I am really impressed with the site and all the hard work that has gone, (and still goes), into it.
