Partnerships

Diversity and Inclusion thrive through relationships. We work with a number of organizations to help us promote diversity and inclusion within and outside Pearson.

In the UK, we are proud members of Stonewall’s Diversity Champions programme, and an active member of Race for Opportunity, Opportunity Now and The Employer’s Forum on Disability.

In the US, along with the National Alliance of Black School Educators, we launched ‘Education is a Civil Right’– an important initiative that targets K-12 African-American students and their families, to address the distinct educational and social challenges faced by that community. This project includes a public outreach campaign and customized resources for both educators and African-American families.

We also support the Pearson Teacher Fellowship, which has helped more than 140 talented college graduates become pre-school teachers in under-served areas across the US. Pearson Teacher Fellows receive a stipend, intensive training, mentoring from a Pearson professional, and the resources needed for school success and professional development.
