Schools

Your school’s website is often the first place parents look, the first place prospective families judge you and the first place inspectors check. Altus Web Solutions builds websites and AI tools for UK schools, academies and multi-academy trusts (MATs) that make communication effortless, admissions enquiries easy and day-to-day updates simple for busy staff.

We combine beautiful, accessible web design with practical AI — from an AI receptionist that answers parent calls out of hours to chat assistants that handle common admissions questions — so your school always responds quickly and professionally.

Websites built for how schools actually work

School websites have to serve everyone at once: current parents, prospective families, pupils, staff, governors and inspectors. We design clear navigation and page structures that put the right information in front of the right people, from term dates and newsletters to policies, curriculum and safeguarding.

For MATs, we build a central trust website alongside individual school sites that share branding, templates and governance content, while each school keeps its own identity.

AI that supports your office team

School offices are stretched thin, especially during admissions season. Our AI chatbots answer routine questions about admissions, open days, term dates and wraparound care directly on your website, day or night. Our AI receptionist answers phone calls when the office is busy or closed, takes messages and logs enquiries, so no parent call goes unanswered.

Every AI tool is trained on your school’s own information and follows rules you set — it always knows when to hand over to a real member of staff.

Benefits for your school

• Stronger parent communication: clear news, letters, calendars and alerts that parents can find in seconds, on any device.
• More admissions enquiries: prominent enquiry forms, open-day bookings and virtual tour content that turn website visits into applications.
• Ofsted-ready content: well-organised statutory pages — curriculum, pupil premium, SEND, safeguarding, behaviour and performance data — that inspectors can find quickly.
• Easy for staff to update: an intuitive editor and reusable templates mean newsletters, term dates and documents can be published in minutes, with no technical skills needed.
• Never miss a call or message: AI receptionist and chat support answer enquiries outside office hours, so parents always get a response.
• Fast, secure and accessible: quick-loading, mobile-friendly pages built to accessibility best practice, with security handled for you.

Parent communication, made simple

From urgent closure notices to weekly newsletters, your website should be the single reliable source of truth for parents. We build dedicated news, calendar and document areas that are simple to update and easy for parents to navigate — reducing the phone calls and emails your office has to field.

Admissions enquiries that convert

Choosing a school is a big decision for families. We create welcoming admissions pages with clear calls to action — book an open day, request a prospectus, ask a question — and follow-up automation that keeps prospective families engaged until they apply.
