CGP has helped students succeed for years and, with over 12m products sold in 2020 alone, we're the UK’s most-loved educational publisher.
Who we are
CGP is the UK’s number one educational publisher. Our instantly recognisable products are used in over 90% of schools and are consistent bestsellers. With well over 1400 titles, from primary to adult learning, we’re the market leader.
Based in the beautiful Lake District, CGP is independently owned and happy to be different. We handle almost every stage of the publishing process in-house, from product development, editing and design to marketing, customer service and shipping. That’s why we take our recruitment seriously, only employing the very best people.
Here's why 90% of UK schools use our products...
