Creative Blogs in the Media!

Sometimes you just get lucky. I certainly did when it came to selling my first blog site: it was to Green Park School in Maghull on Merseyside. To describe the success of the site as a phenomenon would be hardly doing justice to the inspirational leadership of Peter Rafferty, the ICT co-ordinator and the enthusiasm of the staff. The site very quickly got the attention of parents and has become a catalyst for changing the way the school communicates with its community and, more importantly, the way the community feeds back and supports the school. It has had over 30,000 hits since last September and this week caught the attention of the Liverpool Daily Echo who have written an article about the site with suitably glowing quotes from engaged parents.

Let's hope the interest generated encourages more schools to get blogging!

Thanks, Peter
