The site was built with the latest version of Joomla - version 1.7.2 and implmented K2. K2 was still in RC but proved to be stable. one of the sponsors - Weever Apps also provide the ability to provide an effective modile app as well and was useful to provide on the day things like google maps and programs.
Some issue arose around this being a dark theme but the power of Joomla made short worl of it.

SCEGGS Darlinghurst is a K-12 school near the heart of Sydney with a population of 880 girls. SCEGGS previous web site was well designed but was written in a proprietary CSM that the School found difficult to maintain and change. The School liked the look of their site but needed it updated to a CSM they could control and one that allowed searching of the content. It was decided to use the CMS Joomla and to write all content in a Content Construction Kit (CCK) and the component K2 was selected for that.
K2 allows the School to easily edit and add new articles that automatically appear in the correct place. K2 allows adding of images with consistent rendering and attaching galleries and documents is a simple front end upload.
Work began in November 2010 with the transfer of data from the old site and the arrangement into 35 Categories and Subcategories of K2. In all, over 240 articles have been created with only a few of them also being tagged to appear in multiple places.
K2 has been modified to suit the needs of the School including the ability of the users to enlarge fonts on all parts of the articles and some functionality remove - like enlargement of any added photos.
All site design, template creation and article creation was carried out by YWS.
The site was launched on 24th June 2011.

Designed to have a more modern look this site uses a modified template from Joomlashack. The logo is a bespoke design and two of its colours were worked into the template layout. The job application component nearly fulfilled the clients brief but the site could not be made to be SEF because the component opened windows while in search mode causing some links to fail.

The Undergraduate Medical Admissions Test (UMAT) is an aptitude test designed to assist in the selection process for undergraduate health professional courses. F2F Umat initially tutored students only by request, word spread of their success through word of mouth and by 2005 they had too many students to teach as individuals. Thus in 2006 Face2Face UMAT Preparation Centre was born. From the very beginning, F2F made a commitment to getting students in, resulting in a success rate twice as high as their competitors. This fuelled the extraordinary rate of growth and today we have offices in four different cities. By 2010 Face 2 Face UMAT realised the need to offer courses online and they choose Plato Elearning and JoomlaLMS to attain their goals.
