A Shield Crest and Orange Stripes for a School Letterhead
A navy shield hangs from the top left of this letterhead, carrying EDUCATIONAL in white and INSTITUTION in orange above a crest of an open book with figures and stars, framed by orange laurel leaves. Navy and orange stripes with two bold orange slashes run across the top to a date line. At the foot, navy and orange icons list two phones, an email and website and an address, a smaller crest sits at the right and matching stripes close the page.
Traditional Crest, Modern Stripes
The page is 8.5 x 11 inches. The shield feels traditional and academic, while the stripes add a sporty, modern energy.
Institution Name and Contacts
Replace EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION with your school or college name, and replace the crest with your own badge if you have one. The contacts are placeholders.
Setting Up the School Letterhead
- Type the institution name.
- Swap the crest.
- Replace contacts.
- Add a reference line.
- Export a master.
Letters Schools Send
Schools send letters home, admission offers, reports and references. A clear letterhead with the school crest helps parents trust that letters are official.
Swapping in Your School Colours
Change the orange and navy to your school colours, keeping one dark colour for the shield and one bright colour for the accents. The crest stands out best against a strong dark background.
Printing the Shield in Colour and Greyscale
The shield prints well in colour. Schools often photocopy letters in black and white, so check that the crest stays clear in greyscale too.
Department and Office Versions
Create versions with a department name under the crest, such as Admissions Office or Science Department, for letters from different parts of the school.
Official Reference Letters
Reference letters for students and staff carry more weight on official letterhead. Keep a master for the principal or head teacher.
Privacy in Letters About Students
Letters about students contain personal information. Follow local privacy and education rules when sending them.
Using the School Letterhead
Share it with all staff.
