One‑of‑a‑kind school websites that parents love and staff can update with ease.
Websites that keep school communication clear, consistent, and easy for your team to manage. Designed, built and supported to grow with your school for 5+ years.
A one-of-a-kind website that supports enrolments, reduces admin load, and grows alongside the school.
01
Your first impression happens online
Before the open day, before the phone call, families look at your website. If it feels dated or awkward on a phone, confidence drops fast. We design school websites that feel current, considered, and genuinely reflective of your school — so families get the right impression from the start.
02
Updates should be easy for staff
School roles rotate, and the person updating the website this year probably wasn’t doing it last year. We build your school site so staff can publish news, events, documents and key pages without needing technical help. Training is included, and we can refresh it when staff change.
03
Built to grow with your school
Programs evolve, priorities shift, and schools grow. Your website should adapt without needing a full rebuild every few years. We design flexible structures and page patterns that stay consistent as you add content, and we support the website long after launch.

A Closer Look

FAQS
Common questions about school websites
We're not sure if we need a new website or just a refresh — how do we decide?
We can help you figure that out. Sometimes a targeted refresh is the right call; other times the underlying technology means starting fresh is more cost-effective. We'll give you an honest assessment in our first conversation.
What do you need from us to get started?
A short conversation to understand your school, access to your current site, and ideally 2–3 people nominated as your project team. We handle the heavy lifting.
How long does a school website project take?
Most custom school websites take 12–16 weeks from kickoff to launch. Complex multi-campus projects may take 5–7 months. The biggest variable is content preparation.
Can our non-technical staff update content themselves?
Absolutely. Craft CMS is built for this. Your admin team can update news, events, calendars, newsletters, and pages without any coding knowledge. See our technology overview →
What happens after launch?
We don't disappear. Your ongoing plan includes security updates, CMS upgrades, performance monitoring, and priority support. When staff change, we retrain.
How do you handle WCAG accessibility requirements?
Every website we build meets WCAG 2.2 AA standards. This isn't an add-on; it's built into our design and development process from the start.
What is Craft CMS and why is it better than WordPress?
Craft CMS is a professional content management system. Unlike WordPress, there are no plugin conflicts, no per-seat licensing fees, and no surprise costs. It's particularly well-suited to schools.
Do you help with school photography?
Yes. We can recommend and coordinate a photographer, provide a shot list, and plan images around the pages that matter most.
Can the website integrate with our school management system?
We work with the systems WA schools actually use, including Compass, SEQTA, Synergetic, and TASS.
How much does a school website cost?
We're transparent about pricing from the first conversation. For ballpark figures, see our guide →
