COMMUNICATION IN EDUCATION HAS TO WORK FOR EVERYONE
Understanding Education Communication
Education isn’t one type of organisation. A primary school communicating with parents has different priorities from a training academy promoting professional programmes. We adapt the approach around your audiences, responsibilities and the way your organisation communicates.
CLEAR INFORMATION
Make important information easier for parents, pupils, staff and other stakeholders to find and understand.
DIFFERENT AUDIENCES
Structure communication around the different people your school, academy or training organisation needs to reach.
IDENTITY & ETHOS
Present the character, values and purpose of your organisation consistently across digital and physical communication.
ACCESSIBLE COMMUNICATION
Create communication that considers accessibility, usability and the different ways people access information.

How we work
OUR APPROACH
01 · UNDERSTAND
We start with the organisation, not the website. What do you do, who needs to use the site, what needs to change and what should happen as a result?
02 · STRUCTURE
We organise the content, navigation and user journeys so the website makes sense before we start decorating it.
03 · DESIGN
We develop the visual direction around your identity, content and audience, creating an experience that feels recognisably yours.
04 · BUILD
The approved design becomes a responsive working website, with the content, functionality and technical foundations put in place.
05 · SUPPORT
Launch doesn’t have to be the end. We can continue managing content, updates and improvements as your organisation develops.

Marvels Lane Primary School
FEATURED PROJECT
THE CHALLENGE
The school’s website needed to make a large amount of information easier for parents and visitors to navigate while presenting the school clearly and professionally online.
THE APPROACH
We reorganised the website around the needs of its users, improving structure, presentation and access to key information while creating a visual experience that better represented the school.
THE OUTCOME
A clearer, more cohesive digital presence that better represents the school, simplifies access to important information and creates a more intuitive experience for parents, staff and visitors.
YOUR COMMUNICATIONS DON’T WORK IN ISOLATION
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Your website is only one part of how people experience your organisation. Branding, campaigns, printed materials, events and digital content all contribute to how clearly and consistently you communicate.
We can help bring those elements together around the needs of your organisation and the people you serve.
BRANDING
Create a clearer and more consistent identity across your organisation.
DIGITAL MARKETING
Campaigns and content supporting admissions, programmes, events and organisational awareness.
PRINT + PUBLISHING
Prospectuses, programmes, information packs and other materials designed to communicate clearly.

A few straightforward answers to common questions about supporting schools, academies and education organisations.
Do you only work with schools?
No. We work with schools as well as academies, training providers, education programmes and other organisations involved in learning and development.
Can you redesign an existing education website?
Yes. We can review your existing website and determine what should be retained, reorganised, improved or rebuilt.

Yes. Information structure is an important part of education website projects, particularly where policies, notices, events, resources and other frequently accessed information have accumulated over time.
Do you consider website accessibility?
Yes. Accessibility and usability are considered throughout our website work. The exact requirements and scope can be agreed at the beginning of the project.
Can you help with more than the website?
Yes. Synergise Media also provides branding, digital marketing, print and publishing, and conference and event creative support.
Can you provide ongoing website support?
Yes. Ongoing support can include managed hosting, maintenance and agreed content updates depending on the requirements of the organisation.

“Our old website needed a complete overhaul; it was complicated for parents and other visitors to use as well as difficult to manage. We now have the opposite: a website which is attractive and user-friendly; the information on it is easy to locate; uploading new information is quick to do and it is easy to update and maintain – brilliant! A huge thank you to Synergise Media for all their hard work creating this for us and for their patient responses to all our questions“
