Outline for my school magazine
I have received most of the results from my survey to get an idea of how the readers would like a school magazine to be. I am going to aim my school magazines at sixth formers as I feel they would be the ones most interested in a school magazine, especially if it included information on university and what the possibilities are for the future as this is often on our minds. As well as information on education I have found that many people would like information on local gigs, what to do out and about and fashion. 50% of the respondents to my survey said they would not pay for a school magazine, therefore I am thinking that I will not charge for it, although include a lot more advertisements in it to gain a profit from it. Although if this is not possible the rest of the respondent's said they will be willing to pay between £2-£4 for a magazine.
