School Newsletter Analysis


This is the front cover for the Deyes High School newsletter. During the analysis of this front cover I found that in general the newsletter was not appealing on the eye and was maybe a bit to formal for a young audience. My reasoning's for this are as follows:

  • There are no eye catching images
  • There is no colour
  • The logo is faded
  • The layout of the newsletter has no shape
  • The front cover is kept in the same format and style each month
  • There is no masthead for the newsletter, instead a portrait of the school
  • The school badge is the main talking point on the front, instead they could have used a headline or an intriguing picture

These reasons clearly show that the Deyes newsletter is more of an information booklet than an actual newsletter, Deyes have designed it in such a way that they just want the parents/guardians to get the message. This means students don't have much to look at in the newsletter. In my judgement the school could do with some variation to the newsletter as they see the contents as the crucial part and the front cover as a 'necessary', but to get people reading the contents they must first catch there eye by using the front cover more appropriately.
