June 2022 announcement:

Pinterest lends itself perfectly to being a tool for authors to promote their resources. While recently conducting an audit of the content on our Pinterest board, we have unfortunately discovered that some of our authors have been using the board incorrectly. We can see that many authors have been using the Tes Pinterest board to direct users to external websites rather than to Tes resources, with the latter being the purpose of the board. We set the Pinterest board up with the intention that it would help you to promote your Tes resources by allowing authors to become Pin contributors, which has sadly resulted in misuse of the board. The misleading Pins also create a negative user experience for the teachers that visit our Pinterest board, as they are being directed to a website which they are not expecting. 
 
If you share as a contributor on our Pinterest board, we ask that you please review your content to make sure you are directing your Pins to the Tes website alone. We will soon be working through this ourselves and removing any Pins that go against the parameters we have set out, so if you wish for your Pins to remain live on our board, we recommend you check through them to ensure they are linking directly to Tes. We also ask that you please make sure any future Pins that you add to the board link directly to Tes.  
 
Thank you for your cooperation.
