LGfL works closely with similar learning grids in Scotland, Wales, N Ireland and throughout England. By linking the regional grids, a unique National Education Network has been created. Working together, and where copyright restrictions allow, the Grids have pooled their quality on-line resources, and present these for use by the Nation’s schools and learners at www.nen.gov.uk
This site can also be accessed via a new tab above the LGfL Content Grid www.content.lgfl.net or by clicking on http://www.nen.gov.uk/tandl

Becta has announced a new initiative to improve teacher’s ability to share whiteboard content. Currently most whiteboard software use proprietary file formats, meaning that content developed using one whiteboard will not work on a different company’s product. This means considerable duplication of effort, within local authorities and nationally because good materials cannot be distributed without remaking them for each make of whiteboard. To combat this problem Becta have commissioned work to develop a national standard whiteboard file formant to allow files to be created and shared easily. Industry will be invited to become involved in this process. http://news.becta.org.uk/display.cfm?cfid=1495917&cftoken=b8eb4da5ec798d6c-A48A0899-FA8E-E240-0E1CD45760AF9EBD&resID=35000&page=1658&catID=1633
