Statutory expectations, multiple sites and no IT capacity to spare. We've built around all three.
01
Statutory compliance is non-negotiable
Ofsted-aligned website information requirements — policies, governance, performance, admissions — built into every build, structured so parents and inspectors find what they need.
02
Multi-site operations
Trusts and operators running several schools need shared platforms, not a separate system per site. That's exactly what School Whiteboard solves.
03
Hosting that just runs
Schools rarely have IT capacity to spare. We host and maintain sites and apps on managed infrastructure so staff can teach, not firefight.
Compliance by default
Statutory information, covered by default.
Every school website we ship has the Ofsted-aligned statutory information requirements built in — structured so parents and inspectors find what they need, fast.
School Whiteboard is our multi-school SaaS for trusts and operators running more than one site on shared infrastructure. For single schools we build fast, Ofsted-aligned websites with statutory information built in, on hosting we manage.

How we help
What we'd put to work.
The platforms we'd deploy and the services we'd run for schools and academies.
“A practical team who listen first and over-engineer nothing. The website and admin tools have been quietly dependable for years.”

The platform, in full
Built for schools, trusts and education centres.
Education clients need two things done well: a credible, compliant website, and — for multi-site operators — a platform that runs more than one school without multiplying the admin. We deliver both.
The platform behind
School Whiteboard
Springfield English School
Pearls English School
SS Classes
Including app and API hosting where the school runs its own software.
Multi-school SaaS, one platform
School Whiteboard is our multi-school SaaS platform, built for trusts and operators running several sites on shared infrastructure — multi-school dashboards without a separate system, login and bill per school.
Ofsted-aligned websites by default
For single schools and academies we build fast, accessible, Ofsted-aligned websites with the statutory information requirements baked in — pages structured for both inspectors and parents.
Admissions, comms & managed hosting
Admissions, enquiry and parent-communication forms run on top, and everything stays up on managed hosting we maintain for you — including app and API hosting where the school runs its own software.
Mobile-first, and it stays up
The result is a presence that meets statutory expectations, loads fast on the phones parents actually use, and stays up without a school IT team behind it.
Sector FAQ
Questions we hear often.
How quickly can you launch a business website?
Most SME marketing websites go live in a few weeks, not months — a credible, fast, on-brand site with the pages and integrations you need. We then keep it running on managed hosting, so you get a reliable site without internal IT firefighting.
How do you price charity websites?
We work to one of three commercial models: fixed-fee for clearly scoped websites and portals, monthly retainer for ongoing maintenance and marketing, and time-and-materials for discovery or bespoke software phases. We do not publish figures online because charity budgets vary widely; instead we scope the work first and quote against the agreed brief.
Do you provide managed hosting and maintenance?
Yes. We manage hosting across multiple server environments — currently more than 200 domains — with monitoring, backups, security updates and ongoing maintenance. You get a site that simply stays up, with a UK team to call when something needs attention.
Do you build management software for schools and academies?
Yes. School Whiteboard is our multi-school SaaS platform for trusts and operators running more than one site, with shared infrastructure and managed hosting. For single schools we build fast, Ofsted-aligned websites with the statutory information requirements baked in, plus reliable hosting and ongoing maintenance.
Will our school website meet statutory and Ofsted requirements?
Yes. We build the statutory information requirements into every school website — policies, governance, pupil premium, performance and admissions — and structure it so parents and inspectors can find what they need. Sites are accessible, mobile-first and hosted on managed infrastructure we maintain for you.
How reliable is your hosting, and what happens if something breaks?
We host more than 200 domains across six managed server environments, with monitoring, automated backups and security updates handled for you. If something needs attention you reach a UK team directly rather than an overseas ticket queue — and because we build and host the platform ourselves, fixes do not bounce between separate website, CRM and hosting suppliers.
Are the websites you build accessible and WCAG-compliant?
Accessibility is built in, not bolted on. We design donor-first sites with proper semantic structure, keyboard navigation, sensible colour contrast and screen-reader support, working towards WCAG 2.1 AA. For charities this widens your reach and helps meet the expectations placed on public-facing organisations.
