Marketing, operations and brand management to transform Forward Together
With strong education sector expertise and a great relationship with lead school Tyldesley Primary, CRE8 was perfectly positioned to support Forward Together’s leadership team with the marketing, creative and operational needs of the Teaching School.
The team was looking for a complete solution, delivered by one team. Including not just marketing and creative services but strategic and commercial management, the Teaching School needed to significantly raise its profile and awareness locally and further afield.

Creative input, supported by our knowledge of the Teaching School, has delivered beautiful collateral including an annual brochure and tailored printed material, further website development and social media management. Hands-on support at events and key meetings allowed our client to focus on improving outcomes for children.

Our Outcomes
From the implementation of processes which created operational efficiencies, to administrative support which generated significantly increased income, devising and implementing the Teaching School’s CPD programme and the complete management of profitable and successful conferences, our whole team has delivered exceptional outcomes.
Increased student teacher numbers, improved brand recognition and profile and closer working relationships with stakeholders, as well as recruitment and deployment of Specialist Leaders of Education, have helped to embed Forward Together in the local education system.
With our commercial advice, we successfully achieved the designation of Forward Together’s secondary partner Teaching School, and management of bids won important programme delivery projects with the Department for Education. We’re proud of how we have helped to shape Forward Together, transforming the organisation into a forward-thinking and innovative Teaching School.
