Create your own school website: This must go in!

A school homepage is your digital contact to students, pupils and parents. Whether you are a private school or a state school - nowadays schools simply can't do without a school homepage. With this article we would like to show you how easy it can be to create such a page thanks to homepage building kits and what content belongs on your school homepage so that it can even make your everyday school life easier.

Before deciding on a school, parents and students use the Internet to find out about the teachers, the course of a school day and the educational concept. They simply want to get a first impression of the institution, regardless of whether it's a public or private school. Here are a few points you can pick up:

• Teachers: show on a team page which teachers teach the students. Who are the members of the school board? Grab the individual subjects on the homepage and maybe some teaching highlights. Are there particular skills that set teachers at your school apart? Special languages or a particular approach to teaching?

• Classes: On the school website, show how large the classes are at your school and whether this is where your school differs from other schools. Private schools in particular like to advertise that they have very small class sizes and therefore a low staffing ratio. This means that one teacher can take care of a small number of children, so that the lessons can be very well tailored to the students. Specific weaknesses and strengths can also be addressed.

• Projects: Present on your school homepage if there are special work groups or projects. This gives nice insights and future students can consider whether they feel attracted by this program or not. It also shows whether there is room for special interests in the daily school routine. You can also show school events here.

• Subjects: In addition to the general education canon, there are some subjects that schools can voluntarily include. Go into detail on your school homepage about whether you teach media literacy, for example, or whether there is a special focus on languages, science, sports, or anything else.

• Enrollment: How does registration work for your school? Is there any special preparation, possibly special knowledge or evidence that must be provided? Such information belongs on your school's website. It is best if you implement digitization to the extent that all forms can be filled out and submitted online. An applicant/registration portal directly on the website can be helpful here. Give tips on easy registration here, too.

• More information: Consider the school website as a central point of contact before and during school hours. Students, parents, and faculty should be able to tell at first glance which school they are at and what is special about that school. This includes information about the catering, special educational highlights and also events that you have held. What about the possibility of homeschooling? What happens when students are sick - how are they integrated into school life?

• Contact and imprint: Make it easy for parents and students to contact you. Also make it clear who can be reached at which number or e-mail address. Special features like a contact form with a corresponding confirmation by mail about the receipt of the email make it easier for people to contact you. A DSGVO-compliant privacy policy is mandatory. But don't worry, the corresponding declaration is of course directly on board with our homepage builder, so you just have to insert your data. By the way, this also includes the SSL certificate, which is already included in our smallest package. This section of your school homepage also includes the address of your school and how to reach it.
