Make a school letterhead
The crest, the affiliation number and a line the office can actually be reached on.
Schools send letters constantly: admission offers, transfer certificates, notices to parents, character certificates. All of them are expected to be on school paper with the crest and the affiliation or registration number. This makes that page once, so the office can print a stack of blanks or put the header on a PDF notice that is already written.
How to make a school letterhead
- 1
Add the school details
Name, motto or established year as the tagline, full address, phone and email. Upload the crest as the logo.
- 2
Put the affiliation number in
Use the registration fields for the affiliation, recognition or registration number your letters need to show.
- 3
Download and print
Save a blank letterhead for the office printer, or drop in a notice and have the header and footer applied to every page.
Why schools should keep this local
School correspondence carries student names and family details. Building the letterhead in the browser means the notices you apply it to are never uploaded to anyone, which is one less thing for the school to have to explain to parents.
Frequently asked questions
Will the crest print sharply?+
Yes, if you upload a reasonably large image. A PNG with a transparent background sits best against the paper; a JPG with a white background works too on white paper.
Can we put two numbers on it?+
Yes. There are two registration fields, which is usually enough for an affiliation number plus a school code.
Can the same design be used for certificates?+
Yes. Download the blank letterhead and lay the certificate text over it, or write the certificate first and apply the letterhead to that PDF.
Does the office need an account?+
No. There is no sign-up, nothing is uploaded, and it can be saved in the browser on the office computer for next time.
