Carysfort National School is a large, well-established co-educational primary school in Blackrock, Co. Dublin, with 600 children and a busy, engaged school community.
The challenge
A school website has one main job: keep a big community, parents, pupils and staff, informed and connected. It has to make practical information easy to find, from admissions and the calendar to news and after-school activities, and be simple for staff to keep current.
What we built
A warm, well-organised school website built around the community's needs.
- Clear sections for admissions, calendar, news and parent information
- Curriculum, school life and activities all easy to browse
- Simple for staff to update as news and events change
- After school activities are not just a PDF they are graphically displayed to help parents use their precious time to find their child's activity in an instant.
The result
Carysfort has a welcoming, easy-to-navigate site that keeps its community informed and connected, and that the staff can run themselves. For a busy school, a clear, self-manageable website quietly does a lot of work every single day.
