branding

For independent schools in the UK, brand image is the most crucial factor in generating interest from prospective parents and pupils. Your brand will often give the first taste of your school and it’s vital that it adequately and accurately communicates your values and ethos and gives an impression of the quality of your services.

Your brand is your corporate identity or personality and should form the cornerstone of all your marketing communications. We have over 35 years experience in school marketing and can work with you to establish a coherent and compelling yet competitive brand in line with your strategic objectives.

Our branding activities for independent schools always begin with comprehensive research. We believe a thorough exploration of your brand, the associations, ideas and feelings people think of when they see or hear of it is essential. Research methods include communication audits, surveys, interviews and focus groups as these are the most effective at uncovering the essential truths about how your stakeholders really see your school.

Through the results, we can distil key messages, highlight and eliminate negative associations whilst emphasising the positive factors to create a successful, competitive brand.
