William Clarence Education launches new School Service in the face of Brexit Uncertainty and Structural Change for many of the UK’s independent school
In response to the mounting financial pressures facing many of the UK’s independent schools, as a result of a challenging admissions environment, William Clarence Education launched a new division this month – William Clarence School Services (WCSS) - to support senior leaders responsible for marketing and student recruitment.
(firmenpresse) - Writing in William Clarence’s new magazine Independent School Admissions Plus, Andrew Fleck, Principal of Sedbergh School, notes the challenges which school admissions teams are facing across the country due both to the level of uncertainty around Brexit and the increasing levels of competition at home and overseas. For those schools reliant on boarding as a principal income stream, the 57% fall in boarding numbers over 20 years represents a continuing crisis.
WCSS has conducted original, independent research among school admissions registrars and marketing directors which shows that levels of confidence in the sector are not high and many of these key staff feel under-supported.
WCSS works directly with senior leaders responsible for marketing and admissions across the UK independent school sector. Collegiate and consultative in their approach, the experienced team members support every aspect of student recruitment from reviewing and stress-testing current admissions strategies to team mentoring and case-specific trouble-shooting.
Steve Spriggs, Chief Executive of William Clarence Education, commented:
“A key element of a sustainable student recruitment strategy - both domestically and internationally – is effective brand positioning and clear e messaging targeted towards the right audiences. WCSS can now support schools in delivering their entire marketing and communications programmes. William Clarence Education is already the preferred partner for many schools at home and abroad and we are confident that our Schools Services division will rapidly start to make a substantial contribution to the continued health of the sector.”
Hugh Monro, former Master, Wellington College welcomes the launch of WCSS, commented:
“It is vital that attention is paid to the crucial role which marketing and admissions have to play in making good schools even better”.
Hiliary Moriarty, former National Director of the Boarding Schools’ Association echoes Monro’s sentiments:
“Our schools may have a long and respected history; today’s marketing team is about ensuring they also have a bright future.”
William Clarence Education welcomes all enquiries from Independent Academic Institutions, and looks forward to supporting the sector with valuable tools, resources and expertise in the months and years to come. For more information visit williamclarence.com.
