My turn to host the blog
In response to Mel's question about school websites. The school secretary maintains the "grown-up" side of our website. The "kids" section is written by pupils who come to our computer club. We bought a product called "pip-online" which allows the children to create and edit pages without needing to know a thing about HTML. It's a few years old now but I'm sure there are plenty of similiar products. We don't aim to be another Woodlands (I believe they had a member of staff who was given time specifically to maintain the website). Personally I think it's much better to give the children ownership of the site.

Sounds like an excellent way of doing things. Very lucky to have a secretary able/willing to do the 'grown up' side! Not heard of pip-online, but saw BuzzWebz from Indigo learning last year - I really like it. Multiple users can edit and contribute at the same time. Converts to html without you knowing how!
