Prospectus FAQs
Find out if Cleverbox’s school prospectus design service is right for you with answers to some of our most frequently asked questions.
What do you need to get started with my school prospectus design?
To get started with your prospectus design, we will require the content you would like to include, such as your Photography (if we are not doing this for you), information about your curriculum, values, student achievements and faculty profiles. If you have quotes from parents and students, send those too, as well as any exisiting brand guidelines. We also offer copywriting as an additional service.
How do I supply our content?
Supplying content for your school prospectus is easy! We accept electronic submissions as Word documents. You can choose to send them directly via email, or we can set up a secure online folder for you to upload all your content, including logos and any high-resolution photos you would like us to use.
Do you offer a copywriting service?
Yes, we offer copywriting as a service to schools. Our experienced copywriters will work closely with you to create compelling content ensuring your school prospectus is engaging, concise, and effectively communicates your school’s unique selling points. If you think your school could benefit from this service, contact one of our team today.
Do I have to arrange printing or can Cleverbox manage that?
You can leave the printing to us! We only partner with reliable, high-quality printers we trust to deliver exceptional results. Once you’ve approved your final prospectus design, we’ll handle everything from printing to delivery, straight to your chosen location. Need distribution to multiple sites? No problem, we can take care of that too.
Do you offer school stationery or other types of print?
Absolutely, we do more than just school prospectuses. We offer a wide range of printed materials such as additional information booklets, course guides, letterheads, flyers, internal pull up banners, external PVC banners, photoboards, and any other custom printed materials you may need. Let us know your requirements and we’ll help you create a cohesive suite of branded materials for your school.
How do I review and approve my prospectus designs?
You’ll receive digital PDF proofs of your prospectus design, accessible via email or a secure online folder. Your input is crucial at every step, from initial design concepts to final proofs, to ensure the final product meets your expectations.
How many content revisions do I get?
Once you have agreed your design visual, you’ll have two rounds of revisions for the content within the final proofs. We’re happy to accommodate additional revisions, but they may incur a separate fee.
Do you offer a school photography service?
Yes, we provide professional photography as a service to enhance your school prospectus. Our experienced photographers will capture high-quality images of your school environment, showcasing facilities, classrooms, student activities, and more. These compelling photographs will add a powerful dimension to your prospectus, leaving a lasting impression on prospective families. Check out some examples of our stunning school photography here.
How long will it take to produce my school prospectus?
The journey from concept to delivery can take up to a couple of months on average, so getting started early is recommended. Timescales will depend on factors like design complexity, content volume, printing requirements and how quickly you can provide feedback. To ensure we meet any critical deadlines, discuss your timeline with your project manager at the outset. We have time-saving options for those schools with tight turnaround times or limited budgets.
Can I have a ‘Digital Only’ Prospectus?
Yes, of course! If you would like to save on printing costs, we offer digital only school prospectuses. We can create either a simple digital ‘page turner’ for your website, or a fully interactive digital prospectus with the ability to include video and animated elements that will truly engage with your online audience. Both formats can be easily shared through email, your website, and social media platforms for wider accessibility and cost-effective distribution.
What different print finishes are available?
If you are investing in a printed school prospectus, there are a wide range of print finishes available to compliment your design and budget. From matt or glossy coatings to premium options like embossing, spot UV varnish, and foil stamping there we can create a truly impressive and professional look. Your project manager will be happy to discuss these options with you, send you printed samples, and recommend the perfect finish for your prospectus.
