Web Development for Schools

A school's website has two distinct audiences with different needs — prospective parents researching admissions, and current parents and students needing ongoing information (events, announcements, sometimes grades or attendance). Serving both well usually means a clear public marketing section plus a properly access-controlled portal.

This covers the public-facing site and, where needed, the parent or staff portal built on top of it.

What's Included

  • checkAdmissions information and inquiry forms
  • checkNews, events, and announcement pages
  • checkStaff and faculty directory
  • checkParent portal for announcements, calendars, or academic information
  • checkContent management so staff can update news and events independently

Suitable For

Independent and private schools that need a more capable site than a generic template, particularly ones wanting a genuinely useful parent portal beyond just a static PDF newsletter posted occasionally.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this integrate with a school management system?add

Where the system exposes an API, yes — a parent portal can pull real data (attendance, grades, schedules) rather than requiring a separate manual update process.

Can staff update news and events without a developer?add

Yes — this is built as manageable content specifically so routine updates don't require developer involvement.

Is the parent portal secure?add

Yes — access is authenticated and scoped per family or student, so parents only see information relevant to their own children.
