VIRTUAL TOURS

Open the school at 11pm.

Families decide about a school long before they book a tour, and they do it on a phone after the children are in bed. A 360° walkthrough on the school's own site is open at exactly that hour.

On the school’s own domain

The tour lives at the school’s address, not a vendor’s. It is indexed with the rest of the site, it does not expire when a subscription lapses, and there is no third-party logo on a prospective family’s first impression.

Built from the school’s own photography

A 360 camera and an afternoon is enough. Scenes are uploaded, hotspots are placed visually, and the tour is updated when the science block is refurbished — without going back to a production company.

Works on a phone, without an app

Panoramas render in WebGL at 60fps and load progressively, so a family on a regional connection is not waiting on a 40MB file. On a phone the gyroscope moves the view as they turn.

Reachable by everyone

Full keyboard navigation and screen-reader support to WCAG 2.1, and reduced motion is respected. A tour that only works with a mouse excludes part of the community a school is required to serve.

Public, or not

A campus tour can be open to the world. A boarding-house walkthrough can require a login and be limited to specific roles. That choice is per tour.

Embed it anywhere

Drop the tour into any page in the builder, or share a direct link in an enrolment email. The same tour, one place to update it.

Most schools already have the photos.

If there is a 360 camera in the tech department — and there usually is — the first tour can be built by a student in a week. We will show you how it is put together.
