Implementation of the website with the Parents' Committee
For the implementation of the website for the Association of Parents of Students (APL), we worked closely with the Parents' Committee. We started by installing a working version of the website on a subdomain to allow the committee to familiarize themselves with the new site.
Categorization and autonomy for parents
The website is organized into categories such as "South Ken Primary," "Middle School," "High School," "Wix," "Marie D'Orliac," "Andre Malraux," and "British Section," allowing each parent to be autonomous in communicating and writing articles within their own category.
Customization to meet the needs of the committee
Once the categories and different pages were in place, we worked on customizing the website to meet the committee's needs. The committee chose a theme that we personalized by creating a homepage with "featured information," schools, and the latest news, for example.

Implementation of forms
We integrated two forms. The first one allows for collecting donations, and the second one is for gathering information from parents who wish to insure their child.

Migration of the website to the association's domain name
Once the bulk of the work was done, we migrated the website to the association's domain name, apl-cdg.org.uk. We transferred all the photos and texts, then checked and corrected internal links. We also installed an email delivery system so that the committee could regularly send their newsletter from the website, which allowed the association to save costs by cancelling its Mailchimp subscription.
Bilingual website to communicate with English parents
To communicate with English parents, the website was translated into English. We integrated a web solution to create the English version.
Secure hosting for the association
We host and secure the website for the association, offering services such as managing up to 10,000 members, including emailing, 24/7 technical support, weekly backups, and an included SSL certificate.

Training and support for the Parents' Committee
The website is now live, and the committee is self-sufficient in its management. We provided training to committee members on managing the back-end, processing payments, handling insured member registrations, and sending newsletters. We are available to answer any questions the committee may have as they use the website.

What the client says
“Dear Jérémie,
I wanted to take a moment to express my deep gratitude for your exceptional work in creating my website. Your dedication and, above all, your patience ;-) have truly made a significant difference, and I am extremely pleased with the result.
From the very beginning, you demonstrated a thorough understanding of my needs and my vision for the site. You managed to turn these ideas into an online reality, and the result is simply impressive. Every detail was meticulously considered, from the elegant and more modern design to the smooth navigation, not to mention the flawless functionality.
What particularly impressed me was your professionalism and attention to detail. Your ability to quickly resolve technical issues whenever a team member had a problem, and to come up with solutions, was truly remarkable.
In addition to your technical expertise, you really showed great patience and excellent communication throughout the whole process. You took the time to explain the different stages of the site's development to me, which allowed me to feel confident every step of the way, as someone who was a complete novice in this area.....
Thanks to your outstanding work, my website has become a valuable tool for the school to communicate better with our families. It has attracted new members, strengthened my online presence and improved my users' experience.
I would like to thank you warmly for everything you have achieved. You are an exceptional professional, and I wouldn't hesitate for a second to recommend your services to others.
I am hugely grateful to have had the chance to work with you, and I am delighted with the final result.
With all my gratitude,
Karen”
