The First Blog

After a few years of reading blogs on news sites, education sites and of course sports, I feel the time is now to start using a blog as an information tool here at STRIDE. I will try hard to write a weekly blog to be published every Friday. The topics will be varied to include specific STRIDE events, education progress at STRIDE, any proposed changes, national updates on education and any concerns that may be addressed.
I am very excited to share my thoughts with you and just as excited to read your thoughts. What you have to say as part of the STRIDE and/or education community is important and welcome. Please feel free to have a say. Here are a few ground rules that I would like to set in this forum (http://www.problogger.net/):
1. I delete spam - I have spam filters in place which automatically catch the majority of automated spam comments. I don’t put up with it and if any slip through the filters I delete it immediately.
2. Relevant links in comments are actively encouraged - if you’re leaving a comment on my blogs and want to point to a link on your own or someone else’s site that is relevant to the topic then please feel free to do so. This adds to the conversation and improves the blog.
3. Irrelevant links are not encouraged - if you leave a comment with a link in it that has no relevance to the post you’re commenting on it could be deleted.
4. I will delete comments that are deragatory in nature towards an individual or group. We also may have children reading the blog and all language should be appropriate for their eyes.

During the week I will always review the comments to identify any topics the forum would like to discuss. Have a great weekend!
