The first aspect of the magazine that attracts my attention is the main photograph. In the photograph there are two boys of different ethnicities. this represents racial equality. The expressions on the faces of the two boys show enthusiasm for learning and enjoyment. The two boys are both actors that have been specifically chosen to make the image seem believable and this will appeal to the target audience. The boys have been dressed in dark school uniforms which helps them to contrast agains the pale background that they have been placed against. In the background there are two football shirts hanging up, this can give the audience an idea of what the article is going to be about before turning to the page. The football shirts signify a certain, popular football team which the audience can immeditely recognise as being Arsenal. On the back of the footbalol shirts there are the words "Numeracy" and "Literacy". This is showing the audience the two most important parts of education.
Another aspect of the Magazine that attracts my attention is the mast head. The word "secondary" is written in a large, bold font and underneath the word "teachers" has been printed, but much smaller. The font of both these words are the same and the colours used show that both words are of equal importance to the masthead. The coloutrs used are a mizture of greens and blues. The colours dont show any specific genre but are appealing to the reader. The word "Secondary" shows the audience that the magazine has been particularly desigfned for teacher of secondary education and this is clearly shown.
Another part of the magazine that attracts my attention is the yellow headline "Playing to learn". This is placed ontop of the image of the two boys. The audience would be attracted to this headline because it is in a bold font and is bright yellow. The colour stands out from the background image and is quiote informative to the reader about the article inside. Underneathe this headline ther is a sub heading "How football can improve their Maths and English skills" this sub-heading isnt so important as the heading that is above it but it is there because it gives that audience a little more information into the maint article inside.
