Contents of a School Magazine

The school magazine is likely to include things such as: Interviews with teachers/staff. Letter from headteacher/deputy/assistant. School sports team fixtures. Help/guides for revision and exams. School events. Information on the new build.

Target Audience for School Magazine

The target audience for a school magazine would be students at the school, parents/carers, and staff at the school. The target audience would be aged between 11-18 (students) and 25-65 (staff and parents/carers). This means that the magazine has to cater to a wide audience. These people are likely to be interested in the school and be in the local community.

So that will be their audience. The Kerrang! masthead uses a sans-serif font. it is bold and is mostly a white colour, however it is not a uniform fill as it has the black lines going through it making it a pattern fill.
