Expert School Website Developers Working With You

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.

Customised School Web Design Features

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.

Online Admissions Forms

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.

Social Feeds

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.

Intuitive Navigation

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.

Calendar & Events

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.

Email Newsletters

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!

Popups and Attention Bars

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.

Accessibility Tools

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.

Alumni Directory

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.

Facilities for Hire

Showcase your school and its facilities to maximise rental income with an interactive microsite featuring multimedia galleries, virtual tours, booking forms and online payments.
