What impression does your school website give to parents? 👀

September is a busy time for school websites.

Current parents are looking for term dates, attendance information, clubs, letters and key information.

At the same time, prospective families are starting to research schools and decide where they might want their child to go.

And your website is often one of the first places they look.

For many schools, September is when their website receives some of its highest levels of traffic all year.

Which raises an important question.

When visitors arrive on your website, what impression do they leave with?

We've explored this in our latest article as part of our September Back to School Communication series:

September Is When Your Website Either Builds Trust… or Loses It

And we'd love to know — what's the first thing you notice when you look at your website through a parent's eyes?

New term. Fresh start. Better communication. 📣

September is one of the busiest times of the year for school communication.

New pupils, new families, new routines and lots of information that needs to reach the right people.

Schools have more ways than ever to communicate with families. Websites, emails, newsletters, apps, social media and text messages...

But more communication doesn’t always mean better communication.

Sometimes it’s about making things simpler.

Making information easier for parents to find.
Reducing duplication for busy school teams.
Building trust and confidence.
And making sure your website is working at the heart of it all.

That’s why throughout September, we’re focusing on Back to School Communication.

We’ll be sharing practical tips and ideas to help schools communicate more effectively, reduce workload and get more from their website.

💬 What’s the biggest communication challenge your school faces at the start of a new academic year?

🏫 School might be out for summer... but your website is still working.

While classrooms are quieter over the holidays, your website is often busier than you might think.

New parents are looking for September information.

Prospective families are researching schools.

Parents are checking term dates, uniform requirements and key updates.

Job applicants are exploring opportunities.

Your website becomes your school's front door.

That's why summer is the perfect time to make sure it's ready for September.

✅ Is your contact information up to date?

✅ Have you added September dates?

✅ Is your homepage welcoming new families?

A few small updates now can make a big difference before the new school year begins.

Is your school website ready for September?

📸 The end of the school year is a time for celebrating.

Sports Days.

School productions.

Leavers' assemblies.

Prize giving.

Trips.

The moments that make school life so special.

These are the memories that parents love to see, and they tell the story of a school far better than any stock photograph ever could.

But with AI changing the way publicly available images can be used, many schools have been asking us an important question...

"Can we better protect the photographs on our website?"

Our answer was 'yes'.

While no technology can remove every risk, we believed we could help schools continue celebrating their pupils by adding another layer of protection.

That's why we've developed our Image Protection Tool, now being rolled out across our school website platform.

If you'd like to find out why we built it and how it works, you can read our latest blog here:

We'd love to hear your thoughts. Is this something your school has started thinking about?

Be honest... is this you at a conference? 👀

You start the day with an empty bag and leave with enough pens, stress balls, notebooks and random freebies to open your own stationery shop.

As we're getting ready for the Schools North East Education Business Conference next week, we couldn't help but wonder...

What's the best conference giveaway you've ever picked up?

The School Comms Insider has just hit Edition 10. Each fortnight our Marketing Director Becky covers one topic around school communications, parental engagement and school websites - practical, no fluff, and completely free.

Edition 10 is about something we hear from school leaders almost every week:

"We're not a business. We're a school."

It comes up the moment marketing gets mentioned. In this edition Becky unpacks why every school is already doing marketing every single day and why joining it up makes a bigger difference than most schools realise.

You don't need to be active on LinkedIn to subscribe, you just need a LinkedIn account. The newsletter lands in your LinkedIn notifications and your email inbox, so you'll never miss it.
