Weduc created the survey to conduct market research into the obstacles schools face when it comes to reaching and engaging parents. Schools who completed the survey were then entered into a prize draw to win one of three £2,000 cash prizes.
"As a small but rapidly growing school communication specialist, everything we do aims to benefit schools, their pupils and their communities. At a time where a lot of schools are struggling financially, it has been a genuine delight to be able to give back more directly and provide the winners with £2,000 to spend without any funding restrictions! ", says Rob Pointen, CEO at Weduc.
Rob Pointen and Richard Thomas, Chief Revenue Officer at Weduc, visited the schools to give them their prize and discuss how each school plans to spend its money.
