The Websites for Schools initiative offers state schools a free and easy solution for creating and managing a public school website - providing useful information for current and prospective parents, and community.

Participating schools follow a structured training program, where they learn the latest web publishing skills and techniques. Schools can attend live workshops over iConnect web conferencing, self-paced online modules, or a combination of both formats.

More than 400 new websites have now been created on the Websites for Schools initiative since early 2011.

The benefits

The Websites for Schools initiative offers significant benefits to both Queensland state schools and parents.

Schools can expect:

  • a flexible training program to suit the busy school schedule
  • choice of different layout designs personalised for your school
  • a professional looking website that meets state government standards and accessibility requirements

Joining the Websites for Schools initiative

Schools interested in learning more about creating their own website should visit the Websites for Schools Help Site and watch the information session.
