Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what

informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what

kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured
--ICT lessons are a great way of gettingthe kids involved with the yearbookOnce you have set up the basics whynot supervise them filling in theirprofiles
Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike
-- --
--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in
plenty of time

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured
--ICT lessons are a great way of gettingthe kids involved with the yearbookOnce you have set up the basics whynot supervise them filling in theirprofiles
Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike
-- --
--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in
plenty of time

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured
--ICT lessons are a great way of gettingthe kids involved with the yearbookOnce you have set up the basics whynot supervise them filling in theirprofiles
Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured
--ICT lessons are a great way of gettingthe kids involved with the yearbookOnce you have set up the basics whynot supervise them filling in theirprofiles
Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in
plenty of time

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured
--ICT lessons are a great way of gettingthe kids involved with the yearbookOnce you have set up the basics whynot supervise them filling in theirprofiles
Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process

headteachers like to have
a look over the book

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what

informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what

informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what

informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what

informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book

Nominating a staff proofreaderWhile creating your yearbook with us you will probablyreceive a message from your coordinator at some pointasking you to nominate a staff proofreader A staffproofreader needs to be a representative from theschool
Before you start worrying that you are losing control ofthe project - We just want to make sure that the schoolare happy with you using the school name and logo
In order to avoid delays to your printing and delivery doensure the required information is submitted in good timeIf a teacher doesnt reply we may need to consult othermembers of staff which can take time so plan ahead andbe prepared
If a school does not want to be associated with theproject you can make a memory book for your year groupbut all references to the school will need to be removedThese often include
In these cases we find the book loses a lot of characterand content which is why we always recommend speakingto a member of staff early on so you know what you canand cant include

any extra content you wouldlike

any extra content you wouldlike

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts

pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured

Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike

--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have

Communicate with parents early on tofind out if there are any students who
dont wish to be featured
--ICT lessons are a great way of gettingthe kids involved with the yearbookOnce you have set up the basics whynot supervise them filling in theirprofiles
Send out letters to parents
with a rough outline on what
they will need to provideInclude payment
informations deadlines the
kind of photos needed and
any extra content you wouldlike
-- --
--Think about the school year
ahead - are there any events
you would like to be included in
the yearbook
School plays carol concerts
and trips away make excellent
pages so take a look at your
calendar before deciding on a
print deadline
Keep senior members of
staff in the loop during
the creation process
Sometimes we find that
headteachers like to have
a look over the book
before printing so offer
them the opportunity in
plenty of time
