Benefits - what our partners say.
Based on feedback from our school partners and ongoing market research, here's what schools consistently value most about having a bespoke school magazine:
Showcase your unique community
Schools tell us they want to go beyond the traditional prospectus. Parents and prospective students crave a deeper look at the school's heart and spirit. Your magazine, filled with impactful stories, stunning photos, and student artwork, allows you to do just that. Showcase student achievements, faculty awards, and extracurricular triumphs, while highlighting your facilities and resources. This creates a captivating glimpse into your vibrant school community, leaving a lasting positive impression.
Rekindle connections & boost alumni engagement
Schools consistently highlight the importance of alumni relations. Our research shows that alumni love seeing success stories of former classmates, news about reunions, and updates on retired staff. By featuring these elements in your magazine, you foster a sense of community and encourage alumni giving.
Attract prospective students & families
Schools tell us a high-quality magazine is a game-changer. Captivating visuals and compelling stories showcasing your school's unique offerings and educational philosophy make a strong first impression on prospective students and families. Differentiate yourselves by highlighting innovative programmes, specialised courses, and extracurricular activities. Build trust with parents by providing detailed information about your curriculum, faculty, and student support services.
Boost school spirit & community pride
Schools consistently refer to a surge in school spirit after implementing a well-crafted magazine. Celebrate student achievements by featuring their artwork, essays, and sporting accomplishments. Create a platform for students, staff, and parents to connect by sharing insights into classroom experiences, upcoming events, and volunteering opportunities. Foster a sense of belonging by showcasing what makes your school community unique. Consider including a "Letters to the Editor" section to encourage further engagement.
Demonstrate educational expertise & position yourself as an industry leader
Schools want to be seen as centres of academic excellence. Our research shows that publishing thought leadership pieces featuring your faculty's expertise in innovative teaching methods or current educational trends is highly effective. Promote specialised programmes that set your school apart and use your magazine to establish yourselves as a leader in education. Additionally, consider featuring interviews with guest speakers or industry professionals to broaden the scope of expertise.
Enhance communication & transparency
Not a concern for every school, but several of our school partners report that a quarterly or annual magazine is a valuable tool for keeping parents, staff, and the wider community informed. Use your magazine to communicate school policies, upcoming events, and key achievements, fostering a sense of transparency and collaboration!
How it works.
Concept Development: We collaborate closely with your admissions and marketing team to understand your target audience (students, parents, alumni, or a combination). We'll consider your school's unique brand voice and marketing objectives. From there, we'll develop a compelling magazine concept that resonates with your readers and aligns with your school's goals.
Content Creation: Our team of experienced writers can create high-quality content that is informative, engaging, and reflects your school's brand. We can highlight student achievements, showcase upcoming events, and feature faculty expertise. Interviews with alumni, parents, or inspirational figures can add depth and credibility to your magazine. We can create all content for you, use articles and interviews provided directly by your community, or a combination of the two.
Design & Layout: Our designers will create a visually stunning magazine layout that is both aesthetically pleasing and easy to navigate. We'll ensure your school's brand identity is consistent throughout the magazine, using colours, fonts, and imagery that align with your school's visual identity.
Photography: Our photographers can capture professional-quality images that will showcase your school's facilities, vibrant learning environments, and the energy of your school community. We can also utilize captivating student artwork or highlight school events in photos.
Printing & Distribution: We handle all aspects of printing and distribution, ensuring your magazine reaches your target audience. Whether you need physical copies for distribution at school events, or a digital edition for online access, we can manage the process.
Media Kits & Advertising Sales: We can create media kits highlighting your school magazine's reach and demographics. We can also help to secure advertising partnerships with relevant local and international businesses, offsetting design and printing costs.
