Does anyone have a glossary of terms used in Key Stage 3 and 4 in the UK that they'd wish to share?

I've grabbed some from the Devon website and made a start.

For maths, it would be difficult to improve on the Cambridge's outstanding maths thesaurus, which has open source code and content.
I experimented with converting this into Moodle glossary format - it's not impossible but needs a bit more work than I've got time for, and the word list is huge, so there may be performance issues.
 An alternative approach would be to write a filter for Moodle to add links to their copy. Way beyond me, I'm afraid.

I haved used a list from the teacher training agency in the UK to convert their list of ICT terms to the Moodle format. I've put it in the glossary exchange section:

Thats great David, could I post a copy (with due credit and link of course) to the VITTA subject association resource bank? I am impressed with the work done here to encourage users to share their glossary collections. Well done smile

No problem Ronald, the credit goes to the teacher training agency not me however - I simply converted it to moodle.
