1. HillHead High School Website review
Angel Fernandez
Tariq Ishaq

2. Web site facts
It is built on Engage, a CMS (Content Management System)
This CMS is tailored for schools
Basic (as of 2016), a bit “strict”, but very well suited for this purpose

3. Layers of “tuning” (1) Look & Feel (2) Content
(3) Extra Functionalities

4. (1) Look & Feel Engage tool allows to change:
Fonts, colours, sizes, background...
Designs, Menus, ...

5. (1) Look & Feel
Easy to configure (and to make mistakes!)

6. (2) Content Engage allows to define “sections” inside the website
Based on “roles” (admin users)
It is very easy to add content (text) and pictures, videos, etc:
No tech knowledge required!
“Typical” drawback: someone HAS to update the sections content
“Parent Council” section anyone?

7. (3) Extra functionalities
Engage tool does NOT allow to add extra functions out of the box
But… it should be possible
A meeting with council tech dept should suffice to get a final yes/no
Needed for some extra? Examples:
Kindly reminders from teachers/secretary
Kindly reminders from Parent Council
