About us | Purpose and role of faculty. Strategic objectives. Strengths and features. Org chart. |
Location | Link to Our campuses. Include faculty-specific info about facilities if necessary. |
Staff / Faculty staff | People finder tool? All staff associated with the school. Not presented in a table. Student and Academic Services - who, what, when (counter hours), where. |
Forms | As on faculty sites now - large number of downloads. (May move to 'Current students' in the future.) |

Summary of approach
- Sections/areas, not separate sites.
- Much smaller and simpler - audience focused, clearly defined purpose.
- Content much more integrated with mainsite. Content exposed in key areas of site where visitors are looking at related material. Strong links from F and S areas.
- No content duplication.
- Flexible approach - 'local' content that has no logical home on mainsite remains on school site.
- Aligned with mainsite approach for content being organised by task, topic or user group - not by organisational structure.
- Encourage people to think about F&S content (rather than F&S 'sites').
