This is the KHS Music Department site! It's been running since September 2009 and clearly isn't finished yet (these things never are!), but some of what's here (starting with the S3–6 Course info) is important to some people and hopefully proving a great help to them. We're not going to be advertising it widely (we've just added links from our main school site and intranet), but nothing you can see is top secret and you're very welcome to look around. :-)
Well, the site was originally launched mainly to get the S3–6 Course info online as an easily updatable and freely available replacement for our old yellow 'Course Book' (which some older pupils may still have). So the S1–2 Course info and Showcase sections were started at the same time to give an idea of what else we're doing, but currently both still require considerable development to bring them to the same level...
The new Discussion area (planned for some time) has finally gone live in May 2010 (just in time for S5/6 study leave!). Since it's intended mainly for pupils to ask the teacher questions or get informal feedback about their work, it's naturally a password-protected area with membership by application only and unavailable to the general public.
So how about all those hints, tips and reminders the teacher's always scribbling on bits of paper? You might guess that some of them are temporary enough to go almost straight to the recycling bin (eco-friendly, non-computer type), but some of the more important reminders and better ideas can go on here (maybe in the discussion area?) where we can find them again when we need them. And that's what this website is for. Things whole groups of people need to be able to find again. Not 'advertised' outside the school, but accessible anywhere, anytime. Although you might need a user account and password to see some of it!
