A NEW image for a troubled school has been helped by a design firm.

Printoff Graphic Arts has produced a prospectus for the Ridings school at Halifax, last year dubbed the worst in Britain after hitting the headlines.

The prospectus was part of a number of developments introduced by the school's new headteacher.

Printoff produces literature more more than 300 schools and colleages across the country. It recently moved to purpose built premises in Nelson, where it employs 38 people.

Converted for the new archive on 14 July 2000. Some images and formatting may have been lost in the conversion.
