I really like my first try at making a magazine. I stuck to certain conventions such as a 3 coloured colour-scheme. I think this way it looks more professional and flows better, they are also the school's colours, therefore I felt they were just right. The title 'Your SSFG' is both personal and colloquial, as SSFG is an abbreviation commonly used instead of saying 'Southfield School For Girls'. I think that this makes it more appealing to the teenage target audience. A lot of the subheadings have 'cliff hanger' phrases such as 'find out what' which will draw readers in. The shot of the girl is a mid shot that is clearly related to a school environment, with a clear background, so no attention is drawn away from the main image.
Things I would maybe change are adding a little more content, as at the moment some areas look quite bare. Also en cooperate some other images to make the cover look more exciting.
I love it! It looks so professional!
