EE in the Wild: Kew College

Last week, Paul Cripps of Nine Four posted to the EE Forums about a new site they launched: Kew College.

And it looks like they’ve built in some nice features:

We installed, configured and deployed ExpressionEngine allowing us to provide parents, pupils and staff with varying levels of access to content using the Users Module.

Event, term and sports calendars allow parents and pupils to keep in touch with what’s going on.

Parents can register (using the freeform module) for SMS alerts, to receive a prospectus and to gain access to a gallery of photos from school events. The Gallery is built using the standard Gallery module with a few custom pages and a very useful plugin Gallery Category Parent built by our very own (Nine Four) Nathan Pitman.

Be sure to read Paul’s forum post for the details on what add-ons they used to bring the site together.
