You probably should customise existing CMS software.

If you are not proficient in any particular language building a CMS in a month it going to be quite a challenge.

However if you know PHP/MySQL as a 2nd/3rd language you can throw together a CMS in under a week especially if you have a large selection of code knocking around used within other projects.

From the sounds of it ideally you should look into an open source CMS and customise it to suit your needs or use a PHP framework such as http://www.codeigniter.com/ (the tutorials are extremely well done and clear)

Depends on what you want; a CMS at its simplest is really 1) ability to make content and 2) ability to organize that content in to some form of navigation. Using a javascript WYSIWYG editor can help a lot (eg: tinymce or FCKeditor).

The two questions you need to answer are (1) what exactly do you mean by "CMS" (i.e., what are the detailed requirements), and (2) once you know that, is there any reason you have to write a CMS instead of using an existing one if it does a good job of satisfying those requirements?

Or is this some sort of school assignment?
