Just as every uniform is unique, so too are our websites.
At Lemongrass Media, we specialise in building you a custom, user-friendly, engaging web design which showcases your school in action.
We aim to bring your aims and objectives online, inspiring visitors with the excitement that your staff and pupils feel inside your grounds every day.
All our websites are built on the WordPress content management system (CMS). For us, it’s the most intuitive CMS for schools, using the most innovative and modern technology that ensures a seamless and easy-to-use interface. We build fully responsive websites (they look great on mobile devices), with excellent response times and a design that is SEO (search engine optimisation) friendly, so visitors can search effortlessly, no matter which device they are using.
Whether you’re looking for website design for your senior school, primary school or multi-academy trust, our approach is the same, and yet, our delivery is completely personalised.
We understand the breadth of content you have available to share online and our web design experts will work with you to ensure nothing is missed.
At the heart of all our feature-rich websites, we build clear and concise navigation systems to support visitors in finding the pages they are looking for, whether that be subject-specific, pupil-centric, admissions based or general school news and updates.
We base our web designs on the look and feel of your marketing guidelines, directly complementing any available visual assets, such as school prospectuses and other marketing collateral, to enhance your school’s branding.
We’ll cover all the main, necessary assets and suggest more interactive and education-specific functionality to inspire, such as an online school prospectus microsite to support your open days or 360 virtual school tours with integrated aerial maps.
Every minute we spend on your school website design will be to deliver a complete showcase for you, maximising opportunities to share your important information, providing you with a strong online presence and overall generating more traffic.

Below is a fraction of the functionality we can provide you with to really make your website shine. Take a look!
Showcase your students in action with our highly visual galleries. Feature images, video or audio from school trips, fundraisers events, sports days and theatrical events.
Why stick to just images when you have the flexibility to upload audio and video to your website too? Looking to produce a new school podcast? – No problem!
All of our school websites are hosted on a super-fast and highly secure dedicated hosting platform. Perfect for those traffic spikes on snow days!
Branding is one of the most crucial aspects of any school website design, large or small. An effective brand can give you a significant edge in today’s highly competitive market.
Make your school website stand out from the crowd with a fantastic design, using custom graphics created specifically for your website, promotions and events.
We can develop for you a micro-site that fits within your existing website structure. It has a slightly different look and feel to it and can contain everything you would want in a prospectus without the annual/bi-annual costs of reproducing a printed brochure.
Visuals make a huge difference in how users perceive your school. We specialise in showing you off to existing and prospective parents with a colourful and vibrant photoshoot.
Take your visitors on a guided tour of your school with our 360-degree virtual tours that can feature videos, information hotspots, full interactivity and aerial scenes.
Show off your best side with a slick and professionally-designed digital brochure that can be downloaded or presented as a flip book on your website.
Take the headache out of your annual admissions process and move your application forms online! Users can save their progress and return later to complete and even digitally sign forms. All information is collected via the website and can be exported to CSV format for use in other platforms.
Showcase the beating heart of your school with a Social Wall. Create a page where all of your social media accounts feed into, be it separate year group or subject accounts on Twitter, the main school feed from Facebook or the school’s PTA account from Instagram. With everything in one place, visitors immediately get a snapshot of what’s going on.
Make it easy for your users to find information quickly. Using our incredible menu system, we hide nothing away, making navigation as simple as possible.
Does your school sit on impressive grounds? Is it a sprawling site with many buildings? Show it off with an interactive aerial map, giving your users a simplified visual guide on how to get around, with clickable information areas that allow further exploration.
A one-stop shop for what’s on in the school term and forthcoming year. Easily integrate your Google or Outlook calendars and display multiple feeds within one calendar that parents can subscribe to and view on their own personal calendars/devices.
Used in conjunction with your news feed or blog, simply click and drag stories from your website into a pre-formatted newsletter template, add new items and text as you wish and click send, it’s as simple as that!
Snow days, school closures or important announcements – take advantage of our alert bar system, where users are immediately notified upon visiting the website of any urgent or pressing information.
Cater for all visitors to your website with our accessibility options suite, allowing users to increase/decrease font sizes and adjust colours, contrast and greyscale to suit their own needs.
Strengthen your wider school community with a fully-featured Alumni Directory enabling students to stay in touch with each other and the school long after they have left.
Showcase your school and its facilities to maximise rental income with an interactive microsite featuring multimedia galleries, virtual tours, booking forms and online payments.
Allow your pupils to submit their own news, reviews and work to the schools’ website. Administrators are notified when a new story is submitted and can moderate the content before posting live to your school website.
Ensure all information for a subject is available on a single, clear page with a carefully planned and structured curriculum layout.
