Strategy

  1. Data-Driven Approach
    We started by conducting a survey of 2,500 parents, asking them if they would still consider taking holidays during school term time, even with the risk of increased fines. The results provided a fresh angle that would capture media interest—43% of parents were willing to take that risk.
  2. Creating a Press Release
    We crafted a press release that focused on the toughened legal consequences for parents failing to ensure school attendance. By using the survey data and expert commentary, we created a narrative that emphasized the gravity of the penalties—up to £2,500 in fines or even jail time.
  3. Media Targeting & Outreach
    We identified national and local news outlets, education blogs, and parenting publications that would be interested in this topic. Our outreach included personalized emails to journalists with a focus on the potential legal risks and data insights from our survey.
  4. Expert Commentary
    To enhance the credibility of the story, we included expert opinions about the implications of school absenteeism. This helped position our client as a trusted resource on both legal and educational matters, making the story more appealing to journalists.
