La Salle en xifres
A school deeply rooted to its neighborhood
With strong ties to its neighborhood, La Salle Gràcia is an atypical case within La Salle.
It is a semi-public (concerted) school in a Barcelona's area where the supply of free public education is wide and it is generally seen as the best option. It is also a religious school in a neighborhood where families value more a non-religious education.
On the other hand, until 2010, the school only taught secondary education and training cycles (Ciclos formativos), so attract new families to create the lines of infant and primary education became the priority of the center.
Des de la seva planificació inicial, el web de La Salle Gràcia ha estat orientada a la captació de nous alumnes i als unificar els canals de comunicació amb les famílies.
The best option
La Salle Gràcia website is the central point of a communication strategy that presents a well-established school, close to families, agile and active and with strong ties to its neighborhood. Its tradition of more than 125 years since it was established in Gràcia offers confidence and security.
Enrollment. The adquisition of families begins directly on the website, where complete, detailed and visually appealing information of each of the educational stages is offered. This information is complemented with the differential value of La Salle's educational innovation projects (ULISSES, FAIG, HARA) and with the center's own educational projects (music, robotics, subjects in English). When a family asks for a meeting, it already has almost all the basic information to make a decision, which facilitates the increase of registrations.
Loyalty. The website is also a loyalty tool for families who have already chosen La Salle Gràcia. Activities, latest news or the montly agenda are always updated and easily accessible. The website, in this way, has become the main means of communication on the activities of students and it is privileged showcase of the dynamism of the school. La Salle Gràcia is an active and constantly moving school with an agenda filled with multiple proposals and events.
Augment de matriculacions
Amb un trànsit que ronda els 100.000 usuaris anuals, el web ha contribuït significativament a l'augment de matriculacions des de la seva publicació en el curs 2016-2017.
Partint d'una situació en què les classes d'educació infantil es trobaven amb un 50% -70% de places ocupades, s'ha arribat a una ocupació total en el curs 2018-2019 i fins i tot a la creació de llistes d'espera. Educació primària està completa i s'ha duplicat la línia d'educació secundària.
Looking ahead
