King Edward VI Grammar School, or KEGS, is a British grammar school located in the town of Chelmsford, roughly in the middle of the county of Essex.

 John Dee - Crystalinks
Dee was offered a readership in mathematics at Oxford in 1554, which he declined, citing English universities' emphasis on rhetoric and grammar (which, together with logic, formed the academic trivium) over philosophy and science (the more advanced quadrivium, comprised of arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy) as offensive.
His eldest son was Arthur Dee, about whom Dee wrote a letter to his headmaster at Westminster School which echos the worries of boarding school parents in every century; Arthur was also an alchemist and hermetic author.
Dee's reputation as a magician and the vivid story of his association with Edward Kelley have made him a seemingly irresistible figure to fabulists, writers of horror stories and latter-day magicians.

 The Educational Technology Site: ICT in Education: --> Learning Platforms yet again
Since a VLE in a school is likely to be an additional tool for teachers (as opposed to the only tool in distance learning), it was not surprising that some features of the VLE such as forums, quizzes and assessment modules were less used than in the tertiary sector.
For anyone considering the use of Moodle in their school, I would recommend a low-cost shared server (I have found www.site5.com to be very good, but there are many others) for testing and piloting purposes only.
If you want a whole school solution then I would definitely recommend a specialist Moodle hosting provider (a list of these, at least one UK based, is provided on the www.moodle.com website).
