[Year 12 IT Apps] YouTube down the tubes?

[jturner]

Can I take up an issue with YouTube.
Our admin is looking to ban YouTube on the basis that "all other 
schools" already have banned it and therefore our students are at risk 
in ways other students are not.
Would appreciate some feedback on whether schools have banned YouTube 
or not - will be of value as we try to decide on its in-school 
educational potential. At the moment the defense is being held together 
by curriculum initiatives. Keith's input is more appreciated as 
supportive evidence.

With Thanks
John Turner
