What parents compare
Parents usually shortlist two or three schools and compare them on:
- Distance and transport.
- Safety and supervision.
- Teachers and class size.
- Curriculum and activities.
- Facilities like play areas, labs and libraries.
- Fees and payment options.
- What other parents say.
Make sure your website, Google profile and Instagram answer each of these clearly. A simple “Why parents choose us” page or highlight helps.
Open house and campus visit tips
- Send a warm confirmation with date, time and directions.
- Have a clear route for the tour, with a staff member guiding.
- Show classrooms in action if possible.
- Let parents meet teachers.
- Give a printed or WhatsApp brochure with fees and documents.
- Follow up within a day.
Content for playschools
For playschools, parents want to see happy, safe children and caring teachers. Short videos of activities, celebrations and learning moments (shared with parent consent) build trust quickly. Keep faces of children private where parents prefer, and focus on activities and smiles.
Measuring admissions marketing
Track enquiries, campus visits and admissions by source. If many enquiries come from Instagram but few visit, improve the follow-up. If visits are high but admissions are low, look at the tour experience and fees communication.
