PUBLICISING THE ACADEMY NEW-BUILD

The Drapers' Academy team headed up by the Principal (designate) Matthew Slater have since January been working out of a shop in Harold Hill's principal shopping centre.  

Not only has it been a good office space but, as it is right in the centre of the community, it provides a very good focus for individuals and families to drop in and find out more about Drapers' Academy. 

It's also a great place to publicise good news.  To help get the story over that the Academy new-build had the go ahead Barbara Abbott, who acts as Matthew's PA, office manager and general point of contact in the office, went ahead and commissioned a banner to hang across the shop front.

It looks really impressive.  It just goes to show that if you have a good story tell it big!

Incidentally a supportive story in the local press:

The sign has ben recyced and since early September has been tied to the railings in front of Drapers' Academy South Building.
