School Marketing on Their Websites and Students in Need of Special Support: Independent Schools in the Stockholm Local Education Market
Tah, Jude K.; Knutes-Nyqvist, Helen
Policy Futures in Education, v20 n6 p681-695 Sep 2022
A key component of the functioning of a market system of education is the provision of information to consumers. While marketing may be used by schools to provide information to consumers. The marketing information may appeal to some consumers and not others. This study examines independent schools marketing on their websites and how it appeals to consumers in need of special support. The findings show that these schools market their goals and values, studentship, methods and programmes, services as well as facilities. The marketing by these schools may not appeal to students in need of special support in the failure to provide relevant and adequate information to them and framing of their studentship that does not include students in need of special support as well as the focus on academic performance.
