Most schools in Maldives are very structured and organized instruction full of meaningful and complex activities and work which are assigned and submitted on a regular and reliable schedules, for example, vocabulary words on Mondays, definitions due Wednesday, spelling quiz on Friday etc. These schedules normally go on the bulletin board or as a slip to be taken home. Instead, if the schools can maintain a website with all the notices, schedules, school rules and other important information regarding the schools, it will be easy and more convenient. In addition it will be easier to get parents views and opinion regarding the schools' development in this way.
One of the barriers schools will face is the expense of buying web space and developing the web page. That problem is solved as there are free website builders. The following list is published in Top 10 Technology Tips for New Teachers, http://theapple.monster.com/
