PTA Magazine

PTA Magazine is PTA-UK's flagship publication. It is produced digitally six times a  year in line with the academic  year. Bookings are now being taken for 2013 with the next edition planned for early January. Please contact Belinda Seagreen on 01732 375467 or sales@pta.org.uk to discuss your requirements.

Celebrating its 10 year anniversary in 2012, PTA Magazine is the leading brand in the sector with a loyal readership. Based on the annual PTA-UK Member Survey, PTA Magazine is one of the top rated member benefits consistently in the top five since 2006.

Distribution

Now distributed electronically, as an interactive, page-turning magazine that can be read on screen the e-zine provides advertisers with the opportunity to embed links directly to their websites improving the opportunity for readers to immediately access your goods and services. As 80% of respondents to the latest Member Survey feel more committee members are likely to read PTA magazine where this is provided electronically, PTA Magazine as an e-zine is ideally placed to provide a route to at least 30,000 PTA volunteers - see circulation below.

The decision to provide PTA Magazine in digital format forms part of PTA-UK's continued consideration of its environmental impact.   An electronic format also means PTA-UK is able to provide a text only format to aid accessibility to visually impaired readers. It can be accessed via a range of the most frequently used browsers; and is now available in a tablet accessible version.

Circulation

All named PTA committee members for whom PTA-UK holds an email address will receive their own digital copy of PTA Magazine giving a circulation of approximately 30,000. In addition, recipients will be encouraged to forward and embed the link on their school / PTA website and Social Media pages.

The September and January editions will also be issued to circa 12,000 schools as part of a campaign to increase PTA-UK membership.

PTA-UK is able to collect comprehensive data on how the PTA Magazine is used - for example, we are able to provide advertisers with statistics on which pages are the most read and which links are most frequently clicked - allowing us to build a detailed profile of the content that is most popular with members.  This data will inform the development of the magazine, helping make it a better resource to support PTAs and inform the placement of your advertisement to maximise readership and 'clickthroughs'.
