SchoolsLive goes live!

September 2008

Baigent are pleased to announce the launch of SchoolsLive, the Scripture Union site which provides a wealth of free Bible resources for Christian groups in schools. The user-friendly site enables teachers to put together a programme of Bible classes by entering the details of their group and choosing from the many available sessions that the site offers.

Scripture Union publish Bible study guides for a variety of age groups. As with other publishers, they have been presented with the problem of how to use the internet to market their print materials successfully. Working closely with Baigent, Scripture Union developed a strategy to offer online Bible resources free of charge, which they are hoping will lead to an increase in the sales of their extensive range of print publications.

The long-lasting, strategic relationship between Baigent and Scripture Union has led to the launch of a number of projects; the redevelopment of the main Scripture Union site, WordLive, PrayLive, and LightLive. We will be looking forward to tracking the success of SchoolsLive along with the other sites in the Scripture Union "family".
