Website Development Proposal
Prepared for: [Client Name or Generic Client]
Prepared by: [Your Company Name or Generic Web Development Team]
Date: July 30, 2025
Project Overview
The objective is to develop a dynamic website with an admin panel to manage content for the
Home, About Us, Contact Us, Schedule a Visit, Enroll Now, and Gallery pages. The Home page
requires a robust system to dynamically manage all sections, add new pages with header links
(e.g., “After-School Activities” or “Reading Programs”) This extensive functionality
significantly expands the project scope, increasing development costs. The remaining pages
allow content and image revisions, form management, and a categorized gallery.
