The websites serve as first impressions for a school. A parent is viewing the website and may want to consider aspects that standout i.e. infrastructure and success. A common ploy used on school websites is the declaration of exam results (GCSE’s) and how that success transpires in making the school successful.

It is only beneficial that schools have websites-and more beneficial to parents. Parents will want to view potential schools in the vicinity close to him/her and may want to do so via internet. If a school in the area does not have internet access, why should the parent bother to do a viewing in person where he/she can view other schools via online internet access?
