Web Publishing Guidelines |
There are three main routes available to you if you wish to submit information to the BLC. From July 07 the key area for exchange of ideas and good practice is the forum. This allows instant publishing of your experience and does not require any third party involvement.You can find out more here.
Alternatively you can submit an article to be included in the BLC website via the contact page. Finally, and to be brutally honest, the slowest way, would be to email it to the site webmaster here. If you can post it to the forum first then please do so.

Before Partner Schools produce material to be published on the Web site, please be aware that the BLC has agreed on simple guidelines to follow. When submitting content please check that the following have been observed:
- Surnames of children must not be used, either in narrative text or on images of their work.
- Photographs of single, or small groups of children, working should not feature clear views of faces. Unless from stock photography resources as is the case on this page.
|
- Profile or semi-profile images will be accepted provided:
- The contributing school has the written consent of the child(ren)'s parents for the material to be included on the BLC Web site.
- The images focus primarily on the task, artifact or outcome rather then the child.
- Photographs of large groups of children will be accepted provided individual children are not readily identifiable, or that those who can be identified have the parental permission described above.
- Any copyright material included in the work is the responsibility of the contributing school. Usually, if appropriate referencing is used, there isn't a problem, but please check if you're unsure.
- The following formats for material can be accepted, but it is more convenient if photographs or graphics are kept as separate files from text wherever possible:
- Software types: MS Word, Publisher, Powerpoint, PDF files (Adobe Acrobat) or plain text (e.g. emails, .txt files, etc)
- Image Types: JPEG's (.jpg), Bitmaps, (.bmp), GIF's, TIFFs
- Multimedia files: Midi Files (midi), Movie Files (mpeg), Windows Audio Files (wav) or Windows Video files (avi)
If you have any technical queries regarding submitting files please don't hesitate to contact the site developers here
