Why AerEthos

Your teachers
are here to teach.

Not to spend 37 hours a year managing a yearbook project between classes. AerEthos invests hundreds of hours into your yearbook so that your staff invest almost none.

The reality

What a yearbook project
actually asks of a teacher.

Every competitor asks a year head or coordinator to run the entire process alongside their teaching workload. Here is what that looks like in practice.

Brief students and explain the platform
2–3 hrs
Chase students for photos — multiple rounds
6–8 hrs
Organise and sort hundreds of submitted photos
4–5 hrs
Plan layouts and design every page
10–12 hrs
Coordinate student quotes, bios and copy
3–4 hrs
Proof every page and manage corrections
3–4 hrs
Manage orders and collect payments from students
3–4 hrs
Liaise with the printer on deadlines and files
2–3 hrs
Distribute books and handle complaints
2–3 hrs
Total time taken from teaching35–40 hrs

That's a full working week. Every year. Taken directly from lesson preparation, student support, and everything else that actually matters. And that's before accounting for the stress of chasing 200 students for photos.

“The year head who used to lose a week of their working life every year to the yearbook now spends fifty minutes on it. That's the only number that matters.”

The numbers

The only comparison
that matters.

What we put in

Hundreds of hours
in your yearbook.

When you hand the project to AerEthos, we don't hand it to a template. We assign a dedicated team. Here is what goes into every yearbook we produce.

200+
Design hours per yearbook
Every single student page is individually designed from scratch. No two pages are the same. No templates. Ever.
100%
Bespoke — nothing templated
AerEthos produces each page as a piece of editorial design. The result looks and feels like a professional publication.
0
Tasks left for your school
Photography brief, student liaison, content collection, design, proofing, print, delivery. We do all of it.
30yr
Digital archive guarantee
Vision NFC embeds a permanent archive in the cover. One tap on any phone. Hosted for 30 years minimum, contractually.
100%
School retention rate
Every school that has worked with AerEthos has returned the following year. That is not a marketing claim — it is a fact.
0
Reprints ever delivered
Every book that leaves our printer is correct. When AerEthos makes an error, AerEthos reprints at zero cost to the school.
On pricing

Yes, the per-book price
is higher.

AerEthos charges €28–55 per book. Our competitors charge €18–22. We are not the cheapest option and we will never pretend to be.

What you are paying for is a team of professionals who invest more hours in your yearbook than your entire staff would — producing a book that looks and feels entirely different from anything a template can produce.

And if you calculate the value of the 35+ hours of staff time AerEthos saves you every year, the real-world cost difference between us and our competitors is almost nothing.
