Education

Our Education Practice is the UK’s largest education sector specialist for communications and PR.

We work with universities, colleges, schools, education agencies, suppliers and charities, and have extensive and senior-level experience of the whole education and skills sector.

Our consultants have previously worked within the education sector and have substantial contacts (media, politicians, networks), knowledge, experience and ‘cultural fit’.

Stakeholders

We help our education clients to engage and influence:

  • Prospective UK and overseas students (for schools, colleges, universities and business schools)
  • Alumni
  • Employers
  • Business and sector leaders
  • Funders and sponsors
  • Politicians
  • Local communities
  • The public

Issues

We help our clients to address the following issues:

  • Reputation (analysis and profile-building)
  • Influencing Government policy
  • Community consultation (especially in relation to estates developments)
  • Public engagement (especially in support of research and ‘impact’ presentation)
  • Student recruitment (UK/Europe and international) at all levels and stages of education
  • Business partnerships, sponsorship/donations and employer engagement.
  • Strategic communications and effective communications structures
  • Online and digital media use and presence
  • Internal communications

Communications Management's excellent knowledge of the education sector and their ability to understand our pretty unconventional programme really helped us achieve greater visibility. Working with a specialist made a huge difference to our PR campaign.
