:-)
No you are right, the mention of 900 was from the early days when we 
considered doing it for the whole school. The seniors number is only around 
300

True but when they access from home should be a quiet time for the school 
and so not a problem. The idea is to try and limit non-educational downloads 
at peak times.

One of my major problems is that it is an all girls school and they love to talk!
(Just joking! and yes I do say that publicly here as well!)
