School Website Design Journey
Initial Meeting About Your New Website
Firstly we will talk to you about what you are hoping to achieve with your new website, both aesthetically, and functionally.
Web Design Presentation
Following our initial meeting, we take your vision and create a design portfolio with our proposed school website design, and branding document, which includes a colour palette and fonts. Following this meeting we will discuss any changes you want to make, and iterate over this process til you are happy.
School Website Development
Once we have a design that meets your vision, we turn the design document, into a school website, which we give you access to during this process via a link so you can check on progress, and suggest any further changes.
Transferring the Website Content
Your content is important, we take content from your existing site and migrate it to the new site, refining the presentation of the content as we go, alternatively we can work with you to create new content.
Training and Go Live
Finally, on a chosen date, we handover your website, giving you full training on how to update any content that you might need to and then make the school website live and available to your stakeholders.
Some FAQs
Of course! From your IT Team to teachers, you will be given a handover session and shown how to edit your realsmart school website so that you can manage the content yourselves and at short notice but don’t forget our helpful support team are always on hand to give you any help you may need.
