Xello

Nick, Deputy: Easy to use and student friendly
Patricia McKee, Head of Careers: Its a great resource for children that can work independently, navigate it themselves and get totally immersed in it.
Jo Kitchener, Head of Upper School: It's good, but the lesson bit of it needs more training/explaining for it to be used properly in our setting. Teachers prioritise their lessons and so don't have a lot of time to master new software.
