Why Choose A Playground Site?
-
Original Website Designs with Animation
All playground websites are designed specifically for each school. Good designs are often inspired by colours and themes which are familiar to the individual school such as a logo or uniform. We like to use the Flash program to help create a unique and fun site for all, but particularly the school children to encourage their involvement with school life.
-
School Tour
Let your website visitors take a look around the school and to make things a bit more fun they may find an extra fun room or two!
Learning and playing often go together so remember the Playground logo! In all our schools tours, you'll find our logo in the playground - click on this to access the playground fun designs.

The Unique Pick & Mix Layout System
The playground layout logo gives you quick and easy options to set-out the content of your site. Guiding your entries helps makes updates simple & quick. With a little variation you may be surprised how creative you can be.

An Update System For Everyday Use
Designed for quick and simple updates the playground update system can be used from any internet browser. By adding small pieces of topical news you can keep your website “alive”. If used with our “start the day setup” you will soon see how easily you can attract attention all around the school !
Is Your Website Fit For Purpose?
What is the purpose of your website?
What can it do? Announce messages, Organise events, distribute newsletters, encourage learning, illustrate work, celebrate awards and achievements, declare policies, invite views, instruct pupils, remind parents, state rules, extend the school office by making forms available, welcome visitors, and provide a focal point for the whole school community.
-
Maybe it is to introduce people to your school.
Potential parents like to see honest and accurate information about the school.
-
Or to help busy parents keep up to date. Parents might want to check on school terms dates or they may appreciate being able to look around the classrooms to see a few displays, to get an idea of the facilities available or just to find their way around before a visit.
-
Can your proud pupils use it too?
Children perhaps would like to show their parents some recent work in class which they could not bring home.
-
Do you use your website to manage the unexpected? When things go wrong like the heating system or perhaps the weather causes problems, do you use your home page for announcements?
-
Does your website provide a convenient shortcut to classroom teaching resources? Teachers can coordinate the material across the year groups while also allowing some of the work to be continued at home.
-
Does it communicate the life of your school? Is your content topical. Can you change it quickly.
-
Does it help your visitors too? Contact details and maps are very useful to temporary teachers, advisors and other first-time visitors. Remember to show your postcode clearly for sat-nav users.
-
Is your website a welcome board.
Some schools even use their website to announce and welcome visitors. Perhaps something like welcome to all parents.
-
In short, are you proud of your website? Make it part of every week.
