A Smart Investment for Your School’s Online Presence.
At EWS, we believe in long-term partnerships with schools, which is why we offer 3-year website contracts that provide numerous benefits. We understand the unique challenges schools face in budgeting, planning, and maintaining an up-to-date online presence. Our website contracts aim to alleviate those concerns while delivering exceptional value and service. Let us explain why our contracts are the right choice for your school.
No Upfront Cost for Website Setup
We recognize that schools have limited budgets and financial resources. That’s why we offer a no upfront cost structure for website setup. You can launch a professional, tailored website without the burden of an initial investment. This allows you to allocate your funds more efficiently, directing them towards other critical areas of your school’s operations.
Consistent Budgeting
With our 3-year website contracts, you can enjoy consistent budgeting year after year. The contract terms outline fixed monthly or annual payments, making planning and allocating funds for your website needs easier. With no unexpected costs or surprises along the way, just a predictable and manageable budget that aligns with your school’s financial planning.
New Website at the End of the Contract: Technology constantly evolves, and your school’s website should reflect the latest advancements and design trends. At the end of the contract period, we offer you the opportunity to refresh and renew your website with a brand-new design. This ensures that your online presence remains fresh, engaging, and aligned with the evolving needs of your students, parents, and community.
Seamless Transition and Dedicated Support
When you enter into a website contract with us, we prioritize providing you with a seamless transition process. Our dedicated team will guide you through every step, from initial setup to ongoing maintenance and support. We understand that schools have unique requirements, and we are committed to delivering personalized solutions and exceptional customer service throughout the duration of the contract.
New website on renewal
How old is your website?
We found that 3 years is a sticky point where websites start to look and feel outdated. Renew and get a brand new website.
Regular Backups
Our websites have weekly back-ups saved locally and onto our cloud server, so you will never have to worry about losing data.
We also have uptime monitoring installed to keep tabs on the status of your website in real-time.
Australian Hosting
- Department for Education approved web hosting.
- Having worked with DfE to pass security test, and with hundreds of schools on our servers – rest assured that you’re in safe hands.
- Redirection forms are pre-filled, ready for principals to sign off so we can launch the new website.
Unlimited support
Do any of these sound familiar:
- Do you rely on that one staff member for updates?
- Do you forget your login access or password?
- Does your provider have limited updates and make you pay more if you exceed your yearly quota?
Those days are gone because our plans include UNLIMITED updates that are done at your request.
New School website
Time for a new website?
Your school will receive a brand new website which will be designed to reflect your school and brand.
It will also:
- meet the Department requirements
- be responsive (work on mobiles/tablets)
- look modern and have all the latest features.
Server updates
Behind your website, there’s a bunch of things (PHP, database, themes, plugins and server) that need updating to ensure the website remains secure and keeps performing well.
These updates are all taken care of behind the scenes, so you won’t ever have to worry about them.
FAQ’s.
Do You Provide Services Around Australia?
Yes, EWS has offices in both Adelaide & Melbourne.
We provide services in website design & development, school photography & videography, with services offered to SA & Victorian schools, both private and public schools.
Can we manage the website ourselves?
We do have a ‘website development only’ option with no-ongoing support included, meaning the school will take full responsibility over the management of the website.
However, most schools that want the option to edit their website themselves will opt for the ‘Unlimited Support Plan’ anyway as they are priced similarly and have extra added value. These schools usually adopt a ‘hybrid’ style of maintenance where the school can make basic edits (like uploading newsletters or blogs), but still have the option to contact the experts (that’s us) whenever they need a hand with major updates (or for when their IT/admin staff are absent).
Does this website meet the Department requirements?
Yes, it’s actually one of main benefits of having a website developed by us.
Our team previously worked with the Department when the ‘School Website Requirements Checklist’ was created, so we know exactly what needs to be on your website.
How do we request changes?
Using the online client panel on the EWS website – Client panel
Can we cancel early?
This isn’t really a “Frequently Asked Question” as we’ve never had anyone cancel early, but if you were curious –
Yes you can cancel early, however the remainder of the contract will need to be paid to cover the initial website development costs.
Do you provide other services such as logos and photoshoots?
Yes, we pride ourselves on being a one-stop-shop for schools.
Check out our ‘Services’ tab and learn more about our photoshoots, videos, logos and school tours.
If there’s a service that we haven’t included – contact us and I’m sure we can still help (or atleast point you in the right direction).
