Oak National Academy: Publishing

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what impact the Oak National Academy’s proposed creative commons licensing would have on teacher authors’ moral rights of (a) attribution and (b) integrity.

Answer

Oak National Academy has conducted the recent procurement on the basis of a non-commercial licence, but will be exploring the case for alternatives, including Open Government Licence and commercial licence. Some market testing indicated benefits to that approach.

In considering a range of potential licensing arrangements Oak will ensure third party intellectual property rights will be respected.
