Rough Draft of School Magazine Cover

Market Research Questionnaire Results

The results from my questionnaire show that, the masthead most people preferred was Class of Kings with 2 votes, although 2 people also suggested King Henry News. Both slogans, "The Write Way" and "CLASS News!" got 3 votes each, with "For the students, by the students" and "EdYOUcation" not far behind, having 2 votes each. Most people, if given the option, would like the school magazine for free and the most favorable topics to read about were, uniform, exam results, and clubs and activites. The most preferred image for the front cover was a tie between sixth form students and a mixture of pupils from each key stage. The school band was also a popular option. The colours that most people associate with the school are blue, yellow and black, white was close, and 3 people also suggested gold.
