Gone are the days when a good website was just a luxury, it is now essential.
A school’s website needs be a central part of an education marketing strategy; a great website can generate a channel of leads if designed and developed well from the ground up, and also offers a great platform to engage with current and potential stakeholders.
A well designed website can create an interactive platform on many levels. Not only can your website be a great way of promoting the services, departments and strengths of your school, but for current stakeholders it can offer interactive day to day content to further engage with them.
A school website is the virtual place where the members of the school community meet. Today, almost every school/ university has its own website where the school administrators post important information about the school and its activities.
Save money, effort, and time
If your school has its own effective website, you will have an instant online brochure. The administrators of the school would not need to worry about print or TV ads to promote the school. And there would be no need to print materials and announcements for parents and other members of the school community. This saves money, time, effort, and paper.
Be available all the time
Through an effective school website, parents, alumni, and other visitors could access salient information about the school from anywhere, anytime, even beyond office hours, as long as there is an internet connection.
Provide motivation/ reward for students
Posting the students’ excellent work on the website is a great way to praise them and their works.
Keep parents well-informed
Everything parents need to know is available on an effective website – activities, recognitions, announcements, etc.
Extends learning
An effective website can also be used as a teaching tool that extends beyond the walls of the classroom. Teachers can post useful links and other teaching materials. Teachers can also utilize forums or message boards to extend class discussions.
Develops communication/ writing skills
The content written by the students sharpens writing skills. The interaction the website provides develops communication skills.
Provide educational support Students can get tutorial lessons through podcast and other useful materials.
Facilitate enrollment
The website can be the place to post the schedule and process of enrollment. It can also be used to house the enrolment procedure itself, just like the website of most universities.
Provide immediate feedback
The morale of the teachers, students, and school administrators can be raised through the immediate feedback/ comments visitors could leave.
Serve as a database
An effective website can also serve as the storage of backup files about the school, the teachers, and the students.
