The client challenge
Choosing a secondary school is one of the biggest decisions a family makes, and much of the research now happens online. Parents want to understand the curriculum, see the facilities, check the admissions process and fees, and get a feel for the school's values before they visit.
A school website also has a second audience: current families, who need up-to-date information such as newsletters and announcements. The site has to serve both, stay accurate as the school year moves on, and be easy to find when parents search for international or IGCSE schools in the area.
The Mojo Nation approach
A website built around parents' questions. We designed the site so that the information families look for has a clear home: about the school, facilities, academics, admissions, school fees and contact details.
Curriculum explained simply. The academics section sets out the pathway from Lower Secondary to IGCSE and the subjects offered, so parents can see how their child would progress.
A clear admissions path. The admissions page walks families through each step, from first enquiry to registration, with the fee structure available to download.
Ongoing maintenance. We keep the site current for the school, for example by adding each edition of the school newsletter to the site menu and keeping downloadable documents up to date.
SEO for school searches. We structure pages and content so search engines understand what the school offers and where it is, helping parents who search for an international or IGCSE secondary school to find it.
