The problem

A product demonstration usually means two windows: a slide deck that argues the case and the product that proves it. Switching between them breaks the flow, and a generic deck answers nobody's actual question. A trust leader, a governor and a distribution partner each need a different conversation.

What I built

A library of session decks, each a single self-contained HTML file served from the SGAF portal's own address. I present from the deck and move straight into the live portal, then come back, without leaving the site; every deck carries a link back to the product. A staff page lists every deck with what it is for and how long it runs.

Each deck is written for its audience and its meeting: the vision deck for partner and distribution meetings, what the Ofsted toolkit expects of governance, the school improvement model, the Audit Hub, reading data in context, the Quality Standard, website publication, dividing the work between governors, the jobs SGAF removes, governor induction, and safeguarding from the board. They share one house style, so a new deck for a new client starts from a finished design rather than a blank page.

Design decisions

Presenting has to work in a real room. Arrow keys, the space bar or a presentation clicker move through the slides, F goes full screen, number keys jump straight to a slide, and every slide has its own link for picking up a conversation later. Each deck prints cleanly to PDF as a leave-behind, and motion stops for anyone who prefers reduced motion.

The result

Meetings run as one continuous story: the argument, the live product and the next step, tailored to the people in the room. The first deck went into the portal on 1 September 2026, and the library had grown to eleven by 20 September.
