Digital Schools is a specialist school website design and digital services company based in Hull, East Yorkshire, serving primary schools, secondary schools and multi-academy trusts across the UK. Founded in 2018 by Jon Robson, Digital Schools was built on a simple but powerful belief — that every school deserves a website that makes a brilliant first impression, meets every Ofsted statutory requirement and genuinely reflects the unique character of the school community it represents. With over 60 schools and trusts served across Yorkshire and beyond, Digital Schools has established itself as a trusted partner for school leaders who want more than a generic template website. Every project is bespoke, every design is tailored, and every website is built around three core principles: Content, Creativity and Compliance. Content, Creativity and Compliance Content is at the heart of everything Digital Schools produces. School websites need to communicate clearly and confidently to multiple audiences simultaneously — prospective parents forming first impressions, current families seeking information, governors checking governance arrangements, and Ofsted inspectors verifying statutory compliance. Digital Schools works directly with senior leadership teams to build content that serves all of these audiences effectively, ensuring every page is purposeful, accurate and up to date. Creativity is what sets Digital Schools apart from the crowded field of generic school website providers. No two schools are the same, and no two Digital Schools websites look the same. Every design is developed from scratch — drawing on the school’s existing branding, colour palette, values and community identity to create a visual presence that staff, pupils and parents are genuinely proud of. From hero imagery to icon design, every creative decision is intentional and distinctly individual. Compliance is where Digital Schools delivers genuine peace of mind for school leaders. Ofsted statutory requirements are not an afterthought — they are mapped into every website from the very first planning stage. Every required page, every mandatory document link and every accessibility standard is checked, included and kept current. When DfE or Ofsted guidance changes, Digital Schools proactively updates client websites — so headteachers and school business managers never face an inspection worrying whether their website meets the required standards. School Website Design Digital Schools designs and builds school websites that combine visual impact with practical functionality. The process begins with a comprehensive site planning session, mapping every page and statutory requirement before a single design decision is made. Professional school photography is conducted at every school — capturing the genuine atmosphere, engaged pupils and dedicated staff that make each institution unique. All images are delivered via secure server for staff review and parental consent verification before going live. The website build follows, carefully integrating branding, photography, statutory documents and curriculum content into a cohesive, fully functioning website. Every school receives dedicated staff training on launch, ensuring the team can confidently maintain and update their site from day one. School Photography and Film Digital Schools offers professional school photography and film production services that give schools the visual content they need to bring their websites to life. Reportage-style photography captures the real atmosphere of the school day — genuine moments rather than staged poses. Staff portraits, environmental photography and specialist facility shots are all included as standard. For schools wanting to showcase their campus from a unique perspective, Digital Schools provides aerial photography and drone film services delivered by fully CAA-licensed operators. 360-degree virtual school tours are also available, allowing prospective parents and families to explore the school interactively from any device at any time. Promotional school films are produced from initial brief through to final delivery — capturing classroom sequences, outdoor activity, staff and pupil interviews and specialist provision in a professionally edited film designed for homepage use, open day presentations and social media. School Branding and Logo Design A strong visual identity communicates a school’s values instantly and consistently. Digital Schools provides comprehensive school branding and logo design services, crafting individual, memorable identities that work across websites, signage, uniform, prospectus and communications. Every brand is developed in close collaboration with the school’s leadership team, ensuring the final result genuinely captures the school’s character and community. Past branding clients include primary schools, secondary schools, special schools and multi-academy trusts across the Yorkshire region. Ongoing Support and Partnership Digital Schools is not a build-and-disappear provider. Once a website goes live, the relationship continues through flexible ongoing support packages designed to fit each school’s budget and capacity. Schools can contact the Digital Schools team by phone, email or Microsoft Teams for fast, friendly assistance. Regular photography visits, content refresh services and proactive compliance monitoring ensure that websites remain current, visually compelling and inspection-ready throughout the academic year. Why Schools Choose Digital Schools School leaders choose Digital Schools because they want a provider who understands education — not just web design. The team brings deep knowledge of Ofsted statutory requirements, DfE guidance, GDPR obligations, accessibility standards and the practical realities of school communications. Every project is managed personally, with no outsourcing and no one-size-fits-all solutions. The result is a school website that works hard for the school, its families and its community — day in, day out. For primary schools, secondary schools and multi-academy trusts across the UK looking for a school website design partner who combines creative excellence with education-sector expertise and genuine compliance knowledge, Digital Schools delivers.
