Students
Website Development Group
We are the website development team; it consists of several branches such as managing resources or other departments. The departments all work to their skill, however we aim to use different people throughout the project to try and gain new skills. The team shares its work out between its groups, and this year’s project was the website newsletter.
We thought that a newsletter would be most beneficial to current students at Snaith School, due to it could contain top tips, for exams, or helpful advice on moving into big school. We also thought this would open up to a wider range of people who would use the school website, not just parents, as children may be interested, in what’s what. Furthermore, the newsletter would help expand what is going on throughout the school, and what is happening. It gives a wider view of how active the school is.
The newsletter was split into different articles, in order of priority; we thought that the year 7’s arrival at Snaith took top priority. Other articles included anti-bullying, East Barnby, sport, school council, each of these took on at an average of two people per article. To accompany the articles we have taken photographs interrelated to the subject.
Problems that occurred were some deadline issues, and confusion of when the articles were due to be in. These problems were resolved by a later deadline. This allowed the articles to be checked and allowed time for Mrs Barr to recheck the articles.
The website development team, made a newsletter containing main events, and things that the team thought would be helpful to students. The newsletter will also be updated regularly however; the date is still to be decided on.
In conclusion, this project was based on organisational skills which I would say, personally, we passed, also the hard work and effort the team has put into this, such as interviewing, and taking time out of lessons to try and get the work sorted. However, there were minor problems that set us back, but we resolved them swiftly.
