Customised Homework Diaries

The 4schools customised homework diary allows you communicate the culture and unique identity of your school. The customised diary contains all the updated content of the premium diary, but schools have the option to add a customised cover and customised pages to their diary.

Your school’s homework diary is key in supporting your pupils’ learning and progress. Your students use their diary every day and so having it customised increases the value your students place on their diary.

Customised pages

Customised content can be added in blocks of 4, 8, 12 or 16 pages. Schools can decide what they would like included to communicate the culture of their school or share important school policies and information with students and parents. The customised pages are placed at the beginning of the diary and are available in full colour or black and white. Customised diaries are printed over the summer and will be delivered to your school in August. The closing date for submitting customised content for diaries is the end of June. Prices for customisation are available on page 8 of this brochure.

“The glossy hardback covers are far superior to what we had previously, and the facility to customise the cover and to insert personalised content pages is great. The generic content across several subjects is excellent also. It is used as a teaching/learning resource by many of the teachers and the pupils seem to like it too!”

Peter Coakley, Principal, St. Mary’s Boys N.S., Maynooth, Co. Kildare

Ordering a 2-year supply of customised diaries will save the school and parents even more money. For example, 200 diaries + 4 pages of content = €4.66 per diary. 400 diaries + 4 pages of content = €4.33 per diary, saving your school €132.00.

Ordering a 2-year supply of customised homework diaries is ideal for schools with fewer than 100 students and for schools where customised content does not change every year. Call and see how much your school can save on customised diaries.
