Want to start and run your own school tabloid newspaper? This book will give you the information and tips you need to get started.

A printed school newspaper that you can distribute to your staff, students and local residents is a wonderful way to build a supportive and inspiring community.

The benefits to the students in terms of media experience gained and evidence gathered for portfolios is immense. And for the school as a whole, the potential for all departments and subjects to work together to celebrate successes with the wider community, in a project that should generate its own revenue, is so exciting.

Learn how to set up your team of student reporters, how to fund the newspaper, how to write your articles and take your photographs, what legal issues you need to understand, how to create your pages, and how to distribute and promote your newspaper. Includes a glossary of terms, a sample ten week term plan and a sample rate card.
