Why I Built This Differently

After 12 years working with schools, I kept hearing the same story: web companies locking them into expensive annual contracts, charging for features that never materialized, and holding their websites hostage.

Schools deserve better.

360 School works on a simple principle: one payment, full ownership, no recurring fees. You get professional virtual tours and websites built exactly as promised—then they're yours to keep forever.

No vendor lock-in. No surprises. Just honest work for schools across Ireland.

What Principals Say

Trusted by schools across Ireland

"

The virtual tour transformed how we connect with prospective families. Parents can explore our facilities any time, and it's dramatically reduced the number of in-person tours we need to arrange.

Mrs. Sarah Thompson Principal, Silverstream Primary School
"

Karl delivered exactly what he promised. The one-time fee was refreshing compared to the annual subscriptions other companies wanted. Our website finally reflects the quality of education we provide.

Mr. David Patterson Head Teacher, Limavady High School
"

The 360° tour is our best recruitment tool. Families from across the country can experience our school before visiting. It's professional, immersive, and works flawlessly on all devices.

Mrs. Jennifer Collins Head Teacher, Mallusk Integrated Primary
"

As a Board of Governors member, I was initially skeptical about the investment. But the virtual tour has proven invaluable - particularly during our ETI inspection. Inspectors could review our facilities remotely, and parents consistently cite the tour as a deciding factor in enrollment.

Mr. Robert McConnell Chair of Governors, St. Mary's Primary School
