Ideas for School Magazine

• Key conventions for a school magazine front cover would be:
• A clear recognisable masthead which is largest font on page
• A large image in the centre of the cover which is usually a medium close-up
• A Starburst/pug with catchy information in them to draw your attention to it
• A banner in a rectangular shape at the top or bottom to advertise articles

All these conventions add to the visual syntax of the cover as the readers eyes will flow with the clear structure of the page layout.

• The audience of this magazine will range from current PB students ageing from 11-18 years old, former students and prospective students. Also pupil's parents, teachers and maybe even governors of the school. This means that the articles featured in the magazine need to be appropriate for this diverse audience. The house style will also need to have a suitable colour scheme as both male and female students and non-students will be reading it.

• The content that will be included in this magazine will be:
• News on result success, exam results and trips
• Improvements to the school including canteen, LRC and common room
• Interviews with students and teachers
• Photos of trips and events 

• Ideas of names for the magazine are:
• PLNTSBRK WEEKLY
• PBROOK MAGAZINE
• PB STUDENTS
• PB NEWS
• PLANTSBROOK'S SCHOOL NEWS
• PB'S BULLETIN
• THE PLANTSBROOK TIMES
• PBM
• THE BROOK'S STUDENT NEWS
• PLANTSBROOK ACADEMY
