Back in May, when I was developing my new school website, I looked at wikis and came across wikispaces.com. They have feature called 100,000 wikis for schools in which they are going to allow 100,000 education related wikis get the full service for free (that means no ads on the wiki pages). They're currently about 1/3 of the way there.
I've signed up the school with a view to using the wiki as a pupil communication tool - the messageboard will be better than using email - and also as a point where any schools we link with can join in with conversations with our pupils.
If only I could now get a version of the wiki to work correctly oncw embedded into the school website, then it would be ready to launch.
