Unfortunately TES has gone down hill...

Reviewed on 2021-01-22T16:47:09

Unfortunately TES has gone down hill year on year. I used to enjoy freely sharing resources and always appreciated those resources that others had shared.I used to learn so much from other teachers, from a variety of sectors & career stages and receive virtual subject & professional support on the Community forums. I used to freely offer my own help & advice where my experience seemed relevant & useful. The articles used to be well written and often thought provoking. Now all that quality education support & teacher to teacher collaboration has gone and TES is just another large global business providing cheap, badly written, filler content and links to similarly vacuous Twitter/Facebook content. Such a shame that their only concern now is pure profit. I don’t think they should be able to use the acronym TES any more as the current offering is light years away from the original Times publication & online content that truly supported the teaching community.

TES is disgusting

Reviewed on 2021-01-22T14:56:51

TES got rid of Community without warning. Many teaching professionals around the world used Community to ask questions,receive information and socialise. TES got rid of 20 years of contributions to forums in a blink. The timing was particularly bad. Teachers around the world were/are teaching online and encountering stress like never before. Community was a place to share ideas and to sympathise with colleagues. I am disgusted by what TES did.

TES, you should be ashamed ...

Reviewed on 2021-01-22T12:36:31

I was a loyal and happy TES customer and supporter for 20 plus years, taking the hard copy magazine and using the website on a daily basis for education news,resources and job hunts. I was also a regular viewer and contributor to TES community. I still find it difficult to believe that the Community was permanently taken down on Christmas Eve with no notice or warning. The Community had a very solid and loyal user base who were a great support to each other with both professional and personal issues. This support has been even more valuable in these challenging times. To take the Community down at a time of year when many were alone and vulnerable was callous, thoughtless and unforgivable, showing that TES have little regard for their customers. They have lost a very long term customer here; I've cancelled my subscription and will not be returning.

Badly done, TES, badly done.

Reviewed on 2021-01-22T00:13:38

TES started going downhill badly when they became a profit-making concern rather than a source of information and support for teachers.Resources - once freely uploaded by teachers and freely available to others - became a sellable commodity. Intelligent articles written by experts in the field were replaced by articles of much less value by writers with much less experience. Advertisements dogged the sidebars. The final insult to teachers and others in the field of education was to have the much-used forums removed with no notice and excused by a lie. While these forums had become increasingly badly managed by moderators who didn't seem to be able to follow their own T&Cs, they were still a source of support and information for thousands of people. And then they were disappeared, in the middle of a pandemic which has caused huge mental health problems, right before Christmas at a time when many teachers were struggling with fears of infection from schools in which they were obliged to be present, from children who have no concept of social distancing. The one reason that hundreds of thousands of TES supporters and members visited the site was removed without notice. And then they had the gall to make posts about 'empathy week'. Well, sorry TES, but you lost yet another customer.

It would not have killed TES to have…

Reviewed on 2021-01-21T22:06:19

It would not have killed TES to have given even 24hrs notice of taking the community forums down,so members had the opportunity of getting contact details from posters likely to be alone or unwell over Christmas. The fact that this was not even considered does not sound like an oversight, more a calculated and callous decision, showing utter contempt for community members. Disgusting.
