The challenge
St Benedict’s College had a very large website with a complex menu system to house information about their top-performing school, and needed assistance with reflecting their excellence in a more user-friendly way.
Our approach
After an in-depth workshop with key staff members at St Benedict’s, Pomegranite streamlined the content across the site into fewer, and more effective pages, and reworked the navigation.
At every step the school’s new admissions process was considered to ensure there were no barriers to entry for parents looking to enroll their child.
We also ensured that the various perspectives on what makes the school unique and special were woven into the website content.
Key results
In the four months following the new St Benedict’s site launch we saw:
- 21 877 total site users, 60.31% of whom actively engaged with the website
- 4 625 downloads of important documents on the site
- 113 633 logged events from users within the area of the school alone
- An event count of 5 627 on the Admissions page outside of the peak admissions period, showing a high number of valuable interactions.
Our impact
The new website showcases the warmth and supportiveness of the school, while also ensuring parents are equipped with everything they need to make the decision to enrol their children. Existing and past students are also considered within the site, which features helpful guidance for their journeys.
I would highly recommend Pomegranite to any business looking for a web development partner. Their strategic direction stood out from the start.
I appreciated the well-structured process, beginning with a collaborative workshop and followed by clear, visual presentations of the site pages. This made the review and editing process smooth and efficient.
