Gain 18 hours CPD, plus a clear understanding of how to:

  • Implement a systemised approach to boosting your school’s marketing and admissions
  • Generate positive ‘word of mouth’ for your school
  • Create a compelling identity and key messages that resonate
  • Increase awareness and interest from prospective families
  • Obtain more enquiries and enrolments (and how to ‘WOW them)
  • Focus on the activities that make the biggest difference

Learn our 3 step system

Having a proven, systemised approach to your marketing means you have clear processes to follow and generate better results. During the course, we teach you our 3-step system to attracting, engaging and converting prospective families:

1. PREPARE – learn how to build strong marketing foundations so that you’re ready to ‘pack a punch’ with prospective families.

2. PROMOTE – we’ll show you the BEST marketing channels to get prospective families excited to know more about your school and to come along to your Open event!

3. PERSUADE – we share simple but powerful conversion strategies that will WOW prospective families and increase enrolments.

In other words, we help schools (like yours) to DO LESS yet see BIGGER RESULTS.

“We are LOVING the course. It’s been brilliant to clear through all of the other jobs that we get drawn into and to have complete clarity on our marketing strategy.”
