Pineapple Planet partnered with Maddington Education Support Centre (MESC) to create a user-friendly, informative, and accessible website that effectively showcases the Centre's services and support for children with disabilities. The project aimed to provide a comprehensive online resource for current and prospective parents, ensuring they have easy access to essential information and resources.
Project Highlights
-
User-Centric Design: The website was designed with the user in mind, ensuring intuitive navigation and easy access to information.
-
Comprehensive Resource Hub: A dedicated section was created to house various resources, allowing parents to view and download important documents and information.
-
Photography: Due to a lack of current images, a professional photoshoot was commissioned at the school, resulting in an image bank of over 200 photographs that authentically represent the Centre's environment and activities.
-
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO): An extensive SEO strategy was implemented to enhance the Centre's visibility on search engines like Google and Bing, ensuring that parents searching for support services can easily find MESC.
-
Accessibility Features: A screen reader was integrated into the website to assist users with visual impairments, ensuring the site is accessible to all.
-
Content Management Training: Training was provided to the Centre's staff, enabling them to update and manage website content independently, ensuring the site remains current and relevant.
The collaboration with Maddington ESC was a rewarding experience, allowing Pineapple Planet to support an organization dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of children with disabilities. The new website serves as a valuable tool for the Centre, facilitating better communication and engagement with the community.
