ABOUT THE SCHOOL

Somerville Intermediate is brimming with opportunities to take part in. Being one of the bigger Intermediate schools in Howick, students enjoy learning in purpose-built studios and a stimulating environment.

Looking after and stimulating learning for children of just 2 years of their school career adds challenges and is very rewarding at the same time.

The school motto: "the best you can be"

A strong virtues programme which fosters Excellence, Respect, Integrity, Perseverance and a solution-focused Attitude, is a cornerstone of our school.
Yolande Franke, Principal Somerville Intermediate

THE CHALLENGE

The website had to adapt to the changing needs and growth of Somerville Intermediate. Being a big school, the segmentation of the information presented while introducing the school as one entity was key.

We supported the enrolment process through the easy to use website and by producing original introduction videos for the school. Dedicated photo shoots provided visuals highlighting the learning and fun to be had at the school.

The content is being updated frequently by the school and it becomes a vital communication tool. We take care of the technical maintenance and support the school with the strategic lead on how to develop the website further.

THE CLIENT SAYS

“... Britta has been delightful to work with. She has an enthusiastic and creative personality and this made the development of our school website an exciting and enjoyable project. She worked in a very collaborative manner in order to ensure that the school had a real sense of ownership in the process and finished product. Her focus is on sustainability and for school staff to be able to eventually take over updating the website.
Personally, I have very little technical knowledge about the workings of websites. I had ideas about what I wanted the site to include and the high standard we wanted to achieve, Britta’s high level of expertise and her professional approach was invaluable in order to achieve this.
Britta showed a good deal of personal interest in and commitment to our project and it was reassuring to know that she wanted the very best outcome.
We are very proud of our school’s website and it is generating rapidly increasing numbers of visitors. It has become a valuable part of our communication strategy.
I can recommend Britta as a creative, dedicated person with the skills to help schools achieve a highly successful and effective website.”
