[CMS License] The website CMS has a small monthly license for its use. The purpose of this license is to reduce the initial cost, as it allows us to charge just for the design, planning, optimisation of your website that is integrated into our advance pre-built system. As this is a licensed product the hosting of the CMS must stay on the innermedia servers which also allows to guarantee the technical side of the CMS as part of the hosting fee.
Intellectual Property The terms and conditions state that if you pay for the website the design files and HTML are owned by your school, the CMS itself is owned by innermedia and is not transferable.
Shared Development Another great benefit for using the SCHooCMS system is once we create a new plug-in we will only charge you an installation cost to apply it to your school. We are already planning to build new plug-ins for this system which we will tell you about once ready.
SCHooCMS Ethos We want to build the best school cms out there and we want to make it accessible. We do not believe in charging each school for full development of the plug-ins we create when they are intended to be shared between the SCHooCMS community.
Good Change We believe in good change which is why we want you to let us know the things that could be done better, things that are labour intensive, things that if we created would make your lives easier, your parents more informed and your school better promoted.
Get In Contact If you have any great ideas and would like us to develop them please contact us today.

[1 Point Media Distribution] (section 9) (section 10) (section 11) (section 12) (section 13) (section 14) (section 15) (section 16)
SCHooCMS lets you create content in single locations that can be applied throughout your website on multiple pages. This means that if you need to update a staff member or a specific call to action you only need to update it once and the whole website will update. This removes the need to remember where content is located and the need to scroll through all your pages making the same updates over and over again. It also removes the chance of human error ensuring your content is always up to date and correct.
Creating Content Snippets You can create content snippets in each specified section by clicking on the left hand navigation. Each section will be described later on in this guide - see index at front of guide for locations.
