Said Henrietta Lightwood, Marketing and Admissions Director, St George’s School Ascot: “We are absolutely delighted to be shortlisted for the Times Educational Supplement Marketing and Communications Campaign of the Year Award 2015. Here at St George’s we have been working to integrate our marketing and admissions strategy, both on and off line, and to generate measurable results from the strategic initiatives implemented. All of the marketing tactics we have used are based on solid research and communicating our brand has been key. “From a marketing perspective, translating St George’s brand values into digital and visual media, print, design, video and photography has made a significant difference. We have had tremendous support from the Headmistress, Rachel Owens, who really understands the power of marketing and has trusted us to implement a campaign, based on solid business objectives, that has had a real impact.” For more information about the awards or if you would like to attend please go to http://www.isawards.co.uk/.
