Head Start School System website, Karachi
- Client: Head Start School System, Karachi (founded 1992, first branch in PECHS)
- Location: Karachi, Pakistan
- What OXEDGE did: UX structure, visual design and a WordPress + Elementor build
- Live at: hs.edu.pk
- Built for: parents of young children choosing a school, and families across the school’s Karachi campuses
The challenge
Head Start is known for early childhood education and runs several campuses across Karachi. That creates two needs. Parents of young children want a school that feels warm and safe. They also want practical answers fast: which campus is closest, what each section teaches, and how to apply.
So the website had to feel as lively as a classroom for young learners, while keeping admissions and campus information one tap away.
The approach
We built the design around colour and play. Each part of the school gets its own bold colour, and photos of children learning sit inside stepped, block-shaped frames.
- Tone: friendly and direct: “Head Start – Where Every Student Matters” and “A Great Place For Education”.
- Colour by purpose: yellow for the home hero, green for About and Campuses, orange for the Elementary programme. Hand-drawn scribbles and a yellow underline add a school-book feel.
- Mobile first: the hero, About page and campus map were designed to work on a phone.
- Admissions always in reach: a Register/Apply button sits in the main menu on every page.
The solution
The site runs on WordPress with Elementor, so the school’s team can update news and admissions information themselves. The live home page carries the headlines from the design, and the footer credits OXEDGE for the website design.
What the site includes today:
- Home page slider: “Head Start – Where Every Student Matters” and “A High Achieving Multicultural Learning Community”.
- Admissions: an online registration form, with an Apply Now button in the header.
- Academics: Elementary, Junior and Senior sections, each with a short summary.
- About and history: the school’s story since 1992 and the meaning of the HSS crest, a Greek symbol for victory.
- News & Events and Parent testimonials (“In Their Own Words”) for families comparing schools.
- A full footer with admissions guides, downloads and links to all seven campuses.
The designs also include an illustrated campus map: a 3D-style town plan with numbered pins for eight Head Start buildings, from Clifton to North Nazimabad, and a list beside it for quick tapping.
