1. The colours for this magazine are mainly pinks and
blacks and white. This is showing that the magazine
could be mainly targeted for the female audience.
And the pinks colours mainly target the mothers in
the family audience, by using these colours it shows
that the magazine is very sophisticated and it takes
pride in what they look like. This could be reflecting
what the school look like that they are a very
respectable school and they want to show this
through their magazine by doing so they are showing
the parents they are very respectable. The
independent school is in pink this could be showing
that it is very bold and bright then the parent is in
black showing off that they are thought about and
are respected as much as the school.
The main image for this magazine is the young girl
that is shown in the main image. She is looking at
the camera she is smiling which is showing that
she is very proud of herself but she is also very
proud of her school and where she is. She has some
badges on her blazer and these could represent her
being head girl or something or she could be a
school prefect and this could show that she is very
proud of what she has done. There are other
people in the background and they could be jealous
of her and what she as achieved for herself and this
is showing that she is very respectable in her
school and she is someone for other people’s
children to look up to.
