EXCELLENT website that warrants a 10 on all aspects. Bold design and messaging that is consistent with their value proposition of encouraging leaders and out of the box thinking. Creative photography and use of illustration. Powerful sections on How We Learn and Trailblazers. They have set themselves apart from all the other websites in a way that clearly differentiates their brand.

Love it, love it, love it. Strong campaign ideas, brilliantly executed. The video is great and sets the tone. Everything else runs down from there; this is how it should be done. There's a top line “feeling” that draws me into wanting to know more which you give me through simple, well-designed navigation and content.

Truly stunning; I had a smile on my face the whole time I was browsing this site. Photography is gorgeous and captures the spirit and power of the girls who attend this school, especially the black-and-white Trailblazer photos. Copy is succinct, original, and intriguing. Site design is excellent. It doesn't make the error of mistaking "originality" for "complexity" but manages to incorporate awesome touches of originality (such as the animated elements). I want to send the girls in my life to this school!

I want to dive into this website and live happily ever after in it. Every interaction was seamless and a pure delight to navigate through. Moreover, the copy substantiated the school's mission so my feet never left the ground. Bravo on presenting a solid message of academic value within the outer rims of whimsy and color.

The visuals are stunning and unique. Everything is clean and the site is a joy to navigate. Looks fabulous on mobile, too. Monkton built a website that allows users to follow the path that best reflects their their unique interests and needs. Browsing their site, I forgot that I was supposed to be evaluating it and I just got immersed in the journey, which felt wonderfully genuine and authentic. Well done!

This website stood out from the pack with its extremely original user experience and design. The innovative approach to video and parallax resulted in a layered, thought-provoking visual narrative. The copy was brief and effective, while the glow of keywords drew the user in for more. Of all the sites, Monkton Combe's was the most intriguing and truly considered how to appeal to younger, technologically savvy audiences.

The effect of watching the transformation of a current student into a possible future path of excellence takes my breath away. It makes me want to go back to school myself! Wimbledon created the perfect blend of whimsy plus proof to present a convincing and informatives site. Bravo.

Loved the interaction with the sketching and the photography and the story it told with the brand. Great work.

The homepage of Wimbledon High School's website is extremely engaging and draws the users' eyes in. The light design flares, photography and textures throughout create a seamless brand experience.
