External links policy

Can BBC Learning link to my site?
BBC Learning includes links to learning related websites which are not maintaned by the BBC. These links are provided so that users have additional relevant information, which they may wish to explore.

The BBC is not responsible for the content of external websites. The inclusion of a link to a third party website, from the BBC's Learning pages, should not be understood as an endorsement.

Can I put a link to BBC Learning websites on my website?
BBC Schools are happy for School and Non-Government Funded Learning websites to make a text link to BBC Schools websites but for copyright and policy reasons we can't allow the use of any logos or content for this purpose.

If you want to link to BBC Schools from your website, please contact us using the feedback form. To process the request as soon as possible, it is important for us to have the following details indicated as appropriate, for the website requesting the link.

For non education, or international sites, usage may be permitted however please complete the feedback form, detailing the same information, so your request can be considered.

1. Where the BBC page is being linked from i.e. the url of the website where the link will be found.
   
   
2. What graphic / image you would like to use. If there are multiple on the page, please use the name of the graphic or image.
   
   
3. Details of the organisation linked to the website.
   
   
4. Would you like to link to the bbc.co.uk/schools homepage or another specific schools site? For specific sites, please send us the web addresses (URL) of the page(s) you wish to link to, however we would recommend using the BBC schools homepage, as the location of deeper links may change as the sites are developed.
   
   
5. Is your site on the internet or is it an intranet site? Will this site be controlled by password use?
   
   
6. For publications made available to the public or educational professionals, please confirm the size of the print run and any charge that may be made to those who obtain the publication.

We also need to ensure that:

• You will not use the link to endorse your site/school or any products.
  
  
• You will not be using the website as part of a course/training that you will charge for.
  
  
• Your site does not contain any commercial advertising.

We are happy for you to include bbc.co.uk/schools as a text only link if it is part of a list of useful sites or links.

How the BBC choose external links

All links from BBC Learning sites are deemed to be editorially relevant to the content, or to the page they are linking from and are suitable for the likely audience.

• We will not normally link to sites which are not free to access.
  
  
• We will not link to external sites in return for donations or any other consideration in kind.
  
  
• The external links on the BBC Learning site are reviewed and varied on an ongoing basis, according to editorial relevance.
  
  
• Some of our external links may refer to websites which offer commercial services, such as online purchases. These links are reviewed every six months.
  
  
• If you are unable to find what you are looking for on this page, you may wish to use the BBC search engine, available at the top of any BBC website page.
  
  
• BBC Learning does not accept submissions or requests. Our team bases its research on popular search terms and conducts an independent evaluation of available websites to populate our external link suggestions.
