Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

Within our TQ training arm of the business they hold silver and are going for gold.  In Pearson Plc we have already started to promote the Armed Forces Covenant on internal and external communication, promotion of our role with the Armed Forces to our staff and to our external partners and stakeholders.  We grant leave for reservists, we promote our vacancies and apprenticeship vacancies on aligned websites and are planning activities for Armed Forces day but also a number of other special days that happen every year. We have a Veterans Employee Reference Group UK Chapter established form 2019 and this group will take forward a specific action plan for the Armed Forces Covenant every year.

About us

At Pearson, we’re committed to a world that’s always learning and to our talented team who makes it all possible. From bringing lectures vividly to life to turning textbooks into laptop lessons, we are always re-examining the way people learn best, whether it’s one child in our own backyard or an education community across the globe. We are bold thinkers and standout innovators who motivate each other to explore new frontiers in an environment that supports and inspires us to always be better. By pushing the boundaries of technology — and each other to surpass these boundaries — we create seeds of learning that become the catalyst for the world’s innovations, personal and global, large and small.
