Introduction
Many multi-academy trusts (MATs) are discovering the real value in unifying their web presence with a single provider. At Juniper Education, we believe that working with one partner for all your trust and school websites not only saves time and money—but also helps maintain consistency, accessibility, and clarity across your entire organisation.
Why one trust website provider matters
Trusts that use different website suppliers often run into challenges: out‑of‑date information, inconsistent systems, varying support levels, and no single point of contact.
By choosing Juniper Education as your trusted provider, these issues diminish dramatically. Here’s how:
- One relationship: You’ll be supported by a dedicated multi‑academy trust expert.
- One system & one agreement: One CMS, one contract, unified pricing.
- One source of truth: Content-sharing capabilities allow trust-wide updates instantly.
- Design flexibility: Achieve a consistent trust identity or tailor designs for each school.
Real‑world impact: Learning Academy Partnership’s experience
Learning Academy Partnership (LAP) is an 18-school multi-academy trust in Devon and Cornwall, united by their mission of “flourishing futures for all.” Their collaboration with Juniper Education highlights the power of a trust‑wide website project.
A trust website partner who listens
Juniper took time to understand LAP’s identity and values, creating websites that felt modern, accessible, and reflective of their ethos.
Challenges with previous websites
Their old sites lacked cohesion, accessibility features, and had a clunky CMS that made even simple updates time-consuming.
Easy content management
With Juniper, editing feels like using Word—what you see is what you get.
Outstanding onboarding and support
Juniper’s team delivered tailored training and managed content transfers for 17 schools in a single week.
Distributed management
Schools now manage their own sites while the trust compliance team oversees the trust-level website.
Community feedback
- Staff: backend is far easier to use.
- Parents: intuitive navigation and event listings help them stay connected.
- Candidates: easier access to vacancies and trust information.
Empowering contributors
Training and intuitive tools give colleagues the confidence to keep content fresh and engaging.
Stronger engagement
Improved communication, fewer incoming queries, and more streamlined processes across the trust.
