Pitching a Press Release to Lead Education Feature in the Yorkshire Post

Double-decker bus transformed into classroom at The Mount School Huddersfield, scoops lead Education feature in the Yorkshire Post.

Love seeing a story come together like this.

From shaping the angle and pitching the press release to landing a lead education feature in the Yorkshire Post, this one had everything.

A strong people story.

Great visuals.

A wider education conversation.

And yes, a rare, red London double-decker bus as a classroom.

At the heart of the story is a Huddersfield independent school – The Mount – thinking differently about how children learn. Combining academic achievement with creativity, confidence, and hands-on experience.

The story was built around a simple but powerful idea: education doesn’t only happen in classrooms.

A key visual hook in the story is the restored double-decker bus, now used as a learning space where pupils can explore STEM, engineering, and creative projects more interactively.

It’s a reminder that sometimes the strongest stories are not just about what is being taught, but how it is being experienced.

If you could design a lesson inside a double decker bus, what would you teach?

The right media angle can really drive coverage.

All aboard for more to come.
