A school website has a dual audience: prospective parents deciding whether to enrol, and existing families who need practical information on an ongoing basis.
Clear Admissions Information
Requirements, deadlines, and the application process should be immediately easy to find — this is usually the first thing a prospective parent is looking for.
Programme and Curriculum Details
Clearly presented information about what the school actually teaches, at what levels, sets expectations and builds credibility with parents comparing options.
Fee Payment Integration
Given how central M-Pesa is to daily transactions in Kenya, a fee payment portal connected to M-Pesa saves the front office significant time compared to manual bank deposits and receipts.
News and Events
An easily updatable section for announcements, term dates, and events keeps existing families informed without constant phone calls to the office.
Staff and Faculty Information
Especially for higher education, showcasing qualified staff builds trust — see GLUK School of Dentistry & Biomedical Sciences, a real example of a Kenyan institution doing this well.
Mobile-Friendly Design
Most parents will check the site from a phone, not a desktop — see our guide on mobile-first design.
