Not entirely surprising to be honest, and I think I would prefer users to be using the real accounts wherever possible anyway. They are far more likely to actually do this out of school hours if it's in the same place as their other social networking. Takes us down to the lower options on the list, we'll look at modifying our trials to take this on board. Thanks Aaron…

It is not allowed by the terms and conditions - http://www.facebook.com/#!/terms.php - Point 4.2 Which states that you can only create 1 account. Now you would think that this would be okay because you are using your school email (presumably) however I have just heard from a student that their 'student' account has been deactivated after they tried to put their class name / set in their profile name to make them easier to find. Facebook have now emailed them informing them that they will have their other account deactivated if they do this again :( This means that to do this permission will have to be gained from Facebook... :( I hate to rain on your parade however there is an issue with kids setting up a seperate Facebook account than their normal personal one.
