School signs help raise MAC profile.

With multi-academy trusts and companies, it is more important than ever to present a cohesive identity, not just within the trust, but across all of your schools. And nowhere is this more visible than with the external signs that greet visitors to your sites.

We worked with St Francis and St Clare Multi Academy Company to create a new design scheme for their Midlands-based schools. They wanted the new design to respect the individual logos from each school, whilst at the same time making it clear to which family each school belongs.

Our proposed designs offered each school the choice between a light or dark colour scheme that was sympathetic to their existing branding. A unified visual language was adopted for the range of signs that included a standard typeface and a trust brand strip that sits below the school information.

Once designs were approved our in-house production team handled the installation of every sign, which included removing redundant ones and re-covering some existing signs to keep costs lower.

The end result is that the MAC now have increased their profile across all of their schools and taken a large step towards creating a more cohesive group of school brands within their family.
