Why is it that schools' sites always suck?

They have to be section 508 compliant meaning that pretty much anybody regardless of browser or disability can access them. That means you can't use much in the way of tables, CSS, images, etc.

My Senior School & 6th Form: http://www.wellsway.bathnes.sch.uk

Oh, but still, they could look a little better :D

I'm sure my school had one, but I can't seem to track it down.

Not that my school has false hopes;)

As you can see, they're both total pieces of crap and apparently don't comply with section 508 or whatever filburt1 mentioned because they've been using JavaScript 2.1, CSS, etc. for a long time -- and the sites STILL look like crap!

I, of course, have not been involved with it; my stuff can be seen at http://www.nicksaunders.net/ if you don't believe me.

@n!ck lol i can't even read the rollover links

@the bestschools kids, i would never think your schools were full of themselves :D or false hopes for that matter :p
