As you’re preparing for the new academic year, it’s almost time to open the doors wide and welcome everyone back to school. To your new students, give them the best first impression and warmest of welcomes, by highlighting what makes your school so special. For those returning to familiar faces and places, welcome them back by showcasing what they can expect as they dive into another year of growth and discovery.
For the newcomers stepping into the school for the first time or returning students, ready to reunite with friends and teachers, there will be a buzz of excitement in the air. Make your digital signage displays stand out with inspirational content that will encourage the audience to want to view and engage with the screens everyday.
Embracing new beginnings
Embarking on a new academic year in a different environment can be both exhilarating and nerve-wracking. By utilising your digital signage you can make everyone feel welcome and aware of their surroundings. Think about location: you want the viewer to be greeted by digital signage screens which ensure maximum visibility and impact.
With a purposeful blend of visuals and functionality, each screen should be positioned in high-traffic areas, which showcase vibrant welcome messages at entrance halls, to dynamic event schedules in staff rooms and student areas. The content used should be used to inform, inspire and create a community feeling.

Digital signage is also a great way of helping new students navigate the corridors and to signpost different areas and departments within your school, guiding them towards classrooms and key locations. Digital displays can also be very helpful in sharing who to go to in certain circumstances, from faculty and staff to the designated safeguarding team.There are countless ways to display the individuals ready to support and guide students along the way.
If you’re looking for ideas for what to display and showcase, how about advertising upcoming school events, celebrating school spirit on social media, achievements in the latest sport competitions, photos of school trips or annual talent shows. You can also share inspiring messages from your staff which encourage students to embark on learning new skills, participate in thought-provoking discussions and collaborate on innovative projects.
