A Print Checklist for Schools & Colleges

The end of the summer term might signal a well-deserved break for students and teachers, but for school administrators, it’s one of the busiest times of the year. Preparing for the new academic year involves a mountain of planning, and ensuring all your print materials are ready is a crucial part of a smooth start.

To help you get organised, we’ve put together a print checklist for the essential items your school or college will need for the new year.

  1. Prospectuses and Welcome Booklets

For new students and their parents, the prospectus or welcome pack is their first detailed introduction to your institution. A professionally designed and printed booklet that is clear, engaging, and reflects your school’s values makes a fantastic first impression and serves as a vital source of information.

  1. Open Day & Welcome Banners

Whether you’re welcoming a new intake in September or planning an open day for prospective students, a large, vibrant banner is essential. A well-placed roller banner in your reception area or a durable PVC banner at the school gates creates a welcoming and professional atmosphere from the moment visitors arrive.

  1. Updated School Stationery

The start of a new academic year is the perfect time to restock your official stationery. Ensure you have a consistent and professional supply of branded letterheads, compliment slips, and appointment cards ready for all your communications with parents, suppliers, and the wider community.

  1. Planners, Timetables & Internal Signage

Don’t forget the day-to-day essentials. From printed wall planners for staff rooms to updated timetables and internal wayfinding signage, having these materials ready before term starts helps everyone feel organised and prepared.
