The King's School, Canterbury sits in and around the precincts of Canterbury Cathedral, which makes it one of the more remarkable school sites in the country and one of the harder ones to explain on a website. Prospective families need to understand how the boarding houses, teaching spaces and sports facilities relate to each other across the city, and an ordinary photo gallery cannot do that.

We built the school a bespoke 360 virtual tour with editing access for its own team. It opens on an aerial 360 above the cathedral and the school's senior site, with the key buildings pinned, so a visitor orients themselves the way they would on a real tour before dropping down to ground level.

What the tour includes

An aerial 360 scene of the senior school and cathedral precincts with building hotspots
Ground-level 360 scenes of key spaces, each with interactive hotspots for information, imagery and links
A scene menu that groups spaces by area, so families can jump straight to boarding, academic or sport
Editing access for the school's marketing team through the CMS built into the tour, so they update text and hotspots themselves

Editable by the school

Because the tour has a CMS built in, the school is not dependent on us for changes. New scenes can be added after a refurbishment and hotspots edited before an open day, and the accessibility widget, keyboard navigation and text scaling are built in.
