Pearson for International Schools

Whatever path you choose, we’re there for the journey

Pearson is the world’s leading learning company. We provide world class assessments, digital content and learning experiences for international schools to enable more effective teaching and learning and to help learners increase their skills and global employability prospects.

We work together with international schools around the world to make a positive difference to learners’ lives and we believe the best part of working in education is seeing learners progress. That's our inspiration, and the inspiration behind the products and services, resources and ideas you'll find here.

Let's make a difference, together.
