The Deyes High Newsletter is very basic and generally plain. I find this is due to the lack of colour and the fairly symmetrical layout of the cover. The image at the top of the cover is a pencil drawn image which shows the cover is very dated for today's modern society - this, however, will be a bit more appealing to students parents - giving the school a more professional and well educated image. The use of "Comic Sans" font on the "Newsletter 2 December 2010" is a very unprofessional-looking part of the cover, the font is rather tacky and doesn't fit well with the rest of the cover.
The St Ambrose Barlow newsletter cover uses colour which is instantly noticeable compared to the Deyes cover. There are also many other features of a magazine cover which are incorporated in this cover such as; Pugs, Puffs, Headline etc. This cover looks more like an article page though as it has the main story and the contents on the front. Use of a "Redtop" masthead has also been used on this which is very eye-catching and professional looking (Redtops are used in other magazines/newspapers such as; The Sun, The Mirror, Hello!, OK!, etc.) Once again, there is use of the "Comic sans" font which makes the whole cover look unprofessional. As opposed to the pencil drawn image on the Deyes cover, this uses 4-colour images cropped to fit in with the anchorage well which is a lot more professional.
