1. What type of Articles go into a school magazine?

In school magazines, a varity of articles must go to reach everyone year groups interest. Some articles would feature the 2010 GCSE success results for the new years 12's. There can also be a article on Sports for people who are involved in sport clubs and also news about a student becoming an athelete etc.. For younger pupils articles can include Success stories as it is an interesting and uplifting story for pupils to read about. Term dates will be included just incase and upcoming charity events will be included such as Year 7 & 8 disco's, cake sales and many others, many younger pupils will find stories like that interesting as they are far from GCSE's and AS/A-level. For older students such as year 10,11,12 and 13, the magazine will feature articles about exam tips, revision and would include lunchtime/afterschool revision sessions, but it would also include University advice and UCAS information which is all vital for the year 12's and year 13's. For all student years, articles can be school trip insights, what was a success from the trips and it may include pictures, also an upcoming events section with disco's and charity events, special assemblys. There could also be an 'Agony Aunt'. This section would target all of the years as many pupils do face problems but are too scared to tell somebody. When producing a school magazine, you need to take into account who are you targetting and what targets them, in this case it would be the whole school.
