Anything that helps locate safe images that pupils can use is likely to be very useful and the options you describe look very good. Shame that studens could turn off sfae search so easily (at least on Google its hidden a bit). Otherwise looks like a good search engine that may alsol help students understand some of the issues surrounding copyright etc. Is Flickr unblocked now within the LA?
