¡Arriba AGREGA!

23/3/09: JANET(UK) has recently signed an agreement with the Spanish Government to take AGREGA, its recently developed digital content management system, as the basis of a National Digital Resource Bank for UK teachers to share publicly funded digital teaching and learning resources developed by schools, charities, industry, Local Authorities, City Learning Centres and colleges.

The system, written in open source software, will be hosted by JANET(UK) on the National Education Network and will thus be freely accessible to all teachers in England and the devolved administrations. The system meets the exacting requirements that have been developed by a consortium of more than 100 Local Authorities without the need for expensive and timeconsuming development, and we believe is an excellent example of international cooperation between our two countries.
