What’s new

from Boomerang in 2015/16 Boomerang is a leading provider to UK primary and junior schools of pupil planners and other supplementary educational products. Our planners successfully help students with time management and planning skills, such as recording homework assignments, and provide an important school-home communication channel. We created in 2014 a new and enhanced primary planner that will continue to be updated and refined for 2015/16. The Primary Academic Logbook, or PAL for short, incorporates 128 pages of colourful designs and stimulating content to encourage student interest and learning practices whilst supporting the new primary curriculum. We have also successfully delivered to primary schools our affordable school-home communication app, Apperio, that provides 21st century effective engagement with parents.

We look forward to helping you, your school, students and staff!

Bespoke Planners Create your own

If you would prefer your very own unique planner from cover to cover - we can help. Boomerang provide hundreds of schools with a variety of bespoke student and teacher planners. At first we encourage you to call our customer service team to discuss your requirements and we will offer recommendations, advice and a detailed quotation. We will need to know the desired quantity, format, pagination, print colour and binding preferences but we can also take you through the various options available and provide you with samples. Artwork can be supplied by the customer - ready to print - or our design studio can assist in this process - either editing existing material or originating from a written brief. “We are more than happy with our school diaries. They are excellent quality as ever! Thank you again for the excellent service provided whilst ordering our diaries!� Natalie Merrick, Round Oak School

“The process couldn’t be simpler. We chose Boomerang because we specifically wanted an app that would be driven from all of our social media and news feeds so it wouldn’t demand much management time. Set-up took less than a day from our end and the app is almost completely self-operating” Graeme Kennedy, Marketing and Branding, Wellington College
