Banned

I was told by someone who works in the education sector that access to this blog is banned in Glasgow schools, using a software censorship package.

Firstly, anyone else able to report the same, either in Glasgow schools or elsewhere?

Secondly, discuss.

    My mum says practically everything is banned on NHS computers. Is the NHS firewall worse than schools?
    Proxy websites my friend, that’s what you need….unless like Tesco CSC the webmaster has blocked them too….

    Kimberly,

    As always you are correct.

    Quiet, shy retiring etc etc.

    What more can one say?

    Most educators (except in East Lothian) find that many good things are banned – Flickr, blogs, Skype, facebook – despite their efforts to introduce social networking into their pedagogy. It is a constant gripe among the wired. You probably mentioned something seriously dangerous at some point – a word such as “sex” or even “gender”.

    And here was me thinking that it was because I’ve been rude about LCM.
