We often talk on this blog about why you should work with us – but we want to talk today about why we want to work with you. The answer is simple: we love to work with schools. And as parents ourselves, we know how important the contact between schools and their community is. 

There’s something special about helping schools tell their stories online. Whether it’s a rural primary, a bustling secondary academy, or a long-established independent school, each project is a chance to support the people shaping future generations. As a school website design company, we don’t just build websites – we connect people. We connect parents to schools. We connect local communities. Though we couldn’t do any of that without our partnerships with you and your hard work! Our websites are a small part of what you do every day, but a really significant part of our daily life. And we hope that each website we build becomes significant at the times you and your stakeholders need it. 

Schools are, at their core, the heart of every town and neighbourhood. We’ve worked with schools where generations of the same family have passed through the gates, and it’s an honour to help them present their values and achievements to the world. Each site we design is more than just an online presence – it’s a celebration of a school’s identity.

One of the most rewarding aspects of our job is the opportunity to meet real needs with real solutions. For many families, their first point of contact with a school is through the website. That means everything from navigation to accessibility matters. We design websites knowing that sometimes they are looking at your school from their mobile phone while standing in the queue at the supermarket. We work with you to make sure they can access whatever they need from wherever they are.

We’re also passionate about making sure school staff can make updates quickly and painlessly. Office managers can publish news updates, headteachers can post newsletters, and teachers can add class content – all without needing any coding expertise! Our CMS is built with busy schools and teachers in mind. We know your staff are already juggling a hundred things; editing the school website shouldn’t be a headache.

Working with such a variety of schools means no two projects are ever the same. We particularly enjoy bespoke school website design, where schools can really build exactly the website they want and need. These projects often allow for a bit more creative expression, and it’s exciting to help schools stand out in a competitive landscape. But whether we’re working with a small village primary or a large multi-academy trust, our goal is always the same: to design a website that reflects the school’s culture; simplifies communication; and supports every user – from governors to students. This also includes making more cost-efficient sites from our many templates, so that budgets are not something else to worry about!

Of course, we understand that the website design market can feel crowded. Schools are often unsure which platform to choose, and we want to help you navigate that too. We pride ourselves on giving honest, jargon-free advice that helps schools make the right long-term decision. Our prices are all up front on our website, as we know that budget is an important consideration for schools.

To sum up, we love working with schools and are delighted that so many have chosen to work with us over the last 16 years+. We are raring to go every day, knowing that every project will make us smile.

If you’re thinking about refreshing your site or starting from scratch, we’d love to help you bring your vision to life. Our school website design team is ready to work with you!
