This site leaves me with mixed feelings. It is, in a nutshell, a search system for critical thinking teaching resources available for British primary teachers. On the one hand, the concept and implementation are quite good (though I would want to see LOM metadata or RSS available for harvesting). But while teachers can search according to grade level, subject, and even philosophical approach, the resources - many of which cost money and many of which are paper based - cannot be filtered by price or format. Actually, I conducted numerous searches on the site, and every resource cost a certain number of pounds (or, in the case of Kidspiration, "one unit"). This is why listings of such resources should be aggregated. While these commercially available reources should be available, they should not be listed to the exclusion of the many useful and free resources available online. The site also allows users to comment on resources, which is an excellent way of offering a guide to quality. Via Spartacus.
