Nowadays schools are regarded as professional businesses in their own right and the importance of having a top quality and up to date school website has never been greater.
Ofsted take a very keen interest in a school's website and they have a strict framework for essential content and usability guidelines. They actually read your website in full before inspections to gather as much information about your school as possible. |

We build professional user friendly school websites, once completed all our schools have access to our very easy and intuitive self editing platform, so they can always keep their site up to date and add any number of pages or content from the comfort of their workplace or home.
Many school's use template website designs which look like friendly fun sites for children with pencil image menu's and over complicated illustrated designs. Sadly they all too often end up looking messy and disorganised, with key information either lost or difficult to find.
These sites miss the fundamental point that most visitors / stakeholders to a school website are actually adults looking for factual information about the school. We build school websites with simple clear navigation and design, so that visitors can find the information they are looking for quickly and easily. We also build in great functionality like learning zones for children, simple integrated calendars for events and HD video / audio and social media so your site is dynamic and engaging from day one. Your school website is a representation of your school to the outside world and it needs to project the right image and engage with your visitors so that they come to rely on it for high quality information at all times.
We also offer unlimited support so that if you get stuck with anything we will either teach you how to do it or quite happily make the updates on your behalf for no additional cost, for the lifetime of your site.
Your choices for a new School Website
If you don't have the expertise or willingness within your school to build and run your own school website then you will need to buy the service from a third party. Lots of schools use website packages from companies such as School Jotter or Primary Site. They specialise in templated standard sites which the school can customise. They seem to suit some schools well, but at Uedit we believe we produce a better quality bespoke site which comes 'fully featured' meaning that we don't charge extra for many of the functions template companies do. We also never limit your bandwidth so no matter how much traffic your site gets it will always be available, and our self-editing system is quite literally child's play!
