Having had some excellent success within the education sector with recent appointments from Student Castle, De La Salle and Mount Carmel to name just a few, Creativeworld goes international in education with a new appointment all the way over in Libreville, Gabon.
Ecole Ruban Vert is an acclaimed international School, looking to increase their profile throughout the local region as well as appealing to an international audience.Their request was to improve the user experience for visitors to the website. In order to do this, the team needed to improve the design and functionality of their existing site whilst also considering the way in which their audience engages and interacts with the School.
Excellence, Respect and Virtue
A unique consideration in this project was that there needed to be various language versions of the School’s website, which was implemented as part of the build. The site now includes English and French versions, while the Spanish version is currently under development. The design style submitted accurately reflected the style and environment of the School whilst emphasising their key values of Excellence, Respect and Virtue. The home page design includes links to a Virtual Tour of the School, Events, Vacancies, Application Portal, News Features and a simple easy to use navigation menu for visitors to move quickly and easily through the site.
The finished product
The Content Management System we developed was based on the client’s requirements to future-proof the site. An important part of this was to make sure there was plenty of flexibility to integrate with third-party platforms which included a Student Application process, a Vacancy system and an exclusive Virtual Tour of the campus. Our in-house design team incorporated a wide variety of features to improve the user experience which included interactive page turning software, video, blogging zones for students, a Headmaster’s blog and an ever-changing social media wall. In addition to this, the simplicity of a WordPress CMS allows the client to have complete control of the site, coupled with the ability to adapt the design theme in the future should they wish to do so themselves.
Keeping up the dialogue
Our liaison with the School was managed through initial scoping meetings, through to shared online consultations and regular review meetings. We developed a strong partnership and we are pleased to see the successful launch of www.ecolerubanvert.com
