Overview
For prospective students and parents, the website is the first visit to campus. It has to answer practical questions (which courses, what it costs, how to apply, when things start) and convey what it's like to learn there. It must also be accessible to everyone and easy for staff to keep current, because outdated course information causes confusion and lost applications.

Course pages that answer every question
Prospective students compare programmes carefully. Each course page should state who it's for, entry requirements, content, format, start dates, fees, outcomes and how to apply, in a consistent structure across all courses.
Structured course data makes pages easier to compare and helps search engines show your courses for relevant searches.
Accessibility in education
Public-sector education bodies in the EU must meet web accessibility requirements, and accessibility is good practice for every institution: students and parents with disabilities must be able to find information and apply.
We design and test to WCAG 2.2 AA, caption videos, structure documents properly and train staff to keep new content accessible.
Choosing a learning platform
| Platform | Good fit for |
|---|---|
| Moodle | Schools and universities needing a flexible, open-source LMS |
| LearnDash or LifterLMS | Course businesses running on WordPress |
| Teachable or similar hosted platforms | Creators wanting simple hosted courses |
| Custom platform | EdTech products with unique learning experiences |
Student privacy
Education platforms hold personal data about students, often minors. We collect only what's needed, secure access with roles and strong authentication, and design consent and data handling with GDPR in mind.
For platforms used by children, we pay particular attention to age-appropriate design, parental consent where required and avoiding unnecessary tracking.
Recruiting students online
Prospective students search for courses, compare institutions and often apply on phones. Course pages that rank for relevant searches, open day registration, live chat or messaging for questions and a simple application process help turn interest into enrolments.
We set up tracking that shows which courses and channels bring applications, so marketing budget goes where it works.
What parents look for on school websites
- Admissions process and key dates
- Fees and what they include
- Curriculum and teaching approach
- Safeguarding and wellbeing information
- Facilities and daily routine
- How the school communicates with parents
Making updates easy for staff
Education websites are maintained by many people: admissions, departments, teachers and communications teams. Without structure, pages drift out of date and styles become inconsistent.
We build content types for courses, staff, events and news, with roles and approval steps where needed, so each team can update its own content safely and consistently.
Features EdTech products often need
- Learner accounts and progress tracking
- Video lessons with captions
- Quizzes and assessments
- Certificates of completion
- Subscriptions or course payments
- Teacher and admin dashboards
Common mistakes to avoid
What we see go wrong most often in education projects.
Outdated course information
Wrong dates or fees cause confusion. Make updates easy for staff.
Admissions only by email or paper
Online applications reduce errors and speed up decisions.
Inaccessible PDFs
Put key information on web pages and make documents accessible.
Too much internal jargon
Write for prospective students and parents, not staff.
