As a learning company, our commitment is to raise standards and improve learning through everything we do.

We are pleased that the investigation has confirmed that Pearson develops qualifications and resources that are fit for purpose, robust and produced with integrity.

As the report notes, we have already made a number of improvements to our operating model which give further reassurance that Pearson operates fairly and appropriately with the interests of students at heart.

Going forward, we will continue to make significant investments in innovations that raise standards and improve learning, whilst regularly reviewing our operating model to ensure these goals are met.
