Site@School is a Content Management Systeem (CMS),
specially designed for primary schools. It has been developed
in close collaboration with schools and their teachers and therefore
it has a number of unique qualities:

- Every pupil can have his/her own webpage. Checking of pages before
publication is possible by their teachers.
- The CMS is managed via the Internet, so you can manage your
schoolsite from home or any other place with an internet connection.
- Refreshing the content of the schoolsite is very simple so the
schoolsite can be kept up-to-date in minutes.
- With the option 'Invisible page' intern links can be made. It's also
a usefule feature  for pages that need a long preparation or pages
that are only needed once a year (Christmas).
- Site@School is simple to install with a graphic user interface.
- Built in modules for guestbook, e-mail, forum (closed forums for
teachers and pupils, public forums for others), news (with an
archive), search for searching the site, advertisments.
- Guestbook- and ads module send e-mails when someone enters data so
unwanted entries are easily noticed.
- S@S can be used as a management system for an existing website.
- Two WYSIWYG page editors, functioning under Linux + Mozilla 1.3.1
and above, Windows + IE 5.5 and above and Netscape 7.1 and above.
- 'High visibility mode' voor visually impaired.
- A comprehensive manual with over 140 illustrations.
- Site@School runs under Linux and Windows.
- Low hardware requirements. Under Linux Site@School runs fine on
an old P1.
- Etc. etc., see the feature list (link below).

At this moment Site@School is supplied with the following languages: 
English, Spanish, Brazilian, Norwegian, Swedish, German, Dutch, 
Japanese and Chinese. 
Site@School's built in translate funcion makes it easy to adapt 
the system to the schools culture.

The first version of Site@School was subsidised by the City District
'De Baarsjes' of the Munucipality of Amsterdam (Holland).
