How Schools Bring Their Stories to Life with TimesEd

From celebrating everyday achievements to strengthening lifelong connections, TimesEd editions give schools a powerful way to tell their story. Each paper is shaped around what matters most to your community — pupils, staff, parents, and alumni — combining professional journalism with your school’s unique voice. The result is a publication people genuinely want to read, share, and keep, creating pride, connection, and impact long after it’s published.

I have worked with Carl and Lynn at TimesEd over the past 18 months to bring the Sedbergh Prep Chronicle to life. I was initially drawn to their creative idea and friendly manner on our first meeting. They have gone on to provide the school with extremely high levels of professionalism, service and creativity that have brought our newspaper to life. I have found that nothing is ever too much trouble, and the school and parents are delighted with the finished product. I would have no hesitation in recommending TimesEd to other schools and businesses – thank you Carl and Lynn!
