Lean CMS for schools
A school site fails in specific ways
Nobody's job is the website. It belongs to whoever has the least on that week, which means it is maintained in bursts and then not at all.
So term dates go stale. The newsletter archive stops halfway through last year. Three pages explain enrolment slightly differently and nobody knows which is right. A parent looking for next Tuesday's assembly time gives up and phones the office — and now it is someone's job again, just a worse version of it.
None of that is a design problem. It is what happens when updating a page is harder than not updating it.
What that means in practice
Updating a page takes a minute
Because the sections already match your branding, changing content is changing words. The person doing it does not need to be the person who built it.
It stays on-brand as staff change
The look is set at the site level, not page by page. A new staff member adding a page cannot accidentally invent a new style for it.
More than one person can edit safely
Two people saving the same page is the classic school-site accident. Edits are kept rather than overwritten, and changes are reviewed before they publish.
Term dates and calendars stop rotting
Dated content can be loaded in bulk from what the school already produces, rather than retyped from a PDF every term.
