New Features!

Hi folks, we’ve added 2 new features to the service.

(NOTE: These enhancements can ONLY be done by the primary contact (i.e. the teacher who originally signed up) at the school who has the ‘PIN’ code.)

Firstly you now have the ability to customise the banner at the top of your screen, so you can personalise your version of the service.

Secondly, you can also turn ‘on’ and ‘off’ the ‘Saved maps’ functionality.  Some teachers may have concerns about pupils being able to see each other maps so we have now put it at the discretion of you as teachers.

 

 

Simply click the drop down menu on the top right of the screen, enter your PIN and then you can change the sub-header to the name of your school and turn ‘on’ or ‘off’ the ‘Saved Maps’ section.

 

2000+ Primary Schools!

Today was a big day here at Digimap for Schools……We just had our 2000th Primary School subscribe!
 
Changes in the OFSTED Inspection Framework for Primary Schools has undoubtedly had an impact on the rise in numbers over the past few months.
 
We do NOT take this support and rise in the number of schools lightly! We’re working incredibly hard to introduce new features to help Primary Schools deliver the National Curriculum!
 
Things we’ve done since November include:
– Added global mapping
– A brand new user friendly interface
– Major lines of longitude and latitude
– Time Zones
– Better Printing for maps
 
We have lots more in the pipeline to help as well!
